65% of American workers said they received NO appreciation all last year for the good work they had done. Yet the second most important thing people want from their jobs is full appreciation. Why is there a disconnect? Because most of us are just too busy! In this beautiful and inspiring book Barbara will share ten simple truths as well as heartwarming stories about appreciating others which you can immediately apply both in your work and your personal lives. The beauty of appreciation is that we can each give it to anyone we choose for no cost except our awareness and a few moments of our time.
