Book Cover & Preview Text
This is not another motivational book about how to win something, defeat someone or how to make a million dollars by “following these few simple steps”, nor is it meant to pit employees against their employers; however, it provides some practical thoughts, experiences and applications for dealing with the truth and embracing where you are in the moment at work, and most of all, living and working well. In addition, the content in this book is meant to be insightful for both the employee and the employer, and to help put some perspectives on the dynamics and realties of what often happens in the workplace.
