Welcome back and happy Mother’s Day! I am excited to be speaking at the Society for Human Resource Management’s International Convention in Chicago in June for my twenty-first year. I will be presenting a Mega session for 2800 people on June 18 on “The Simple Truths of Appreciation & Recognition” and on June 19 another session on “Spreading Contagious Enthusiasm™- Creating a Culture of KINDNESS.” If you are attending this conference in Chicago, I would love to have you stop by. HR is one of my very favorite audiences, and I am honored to have been one of the top rated speakers for the last 20 years!

This book has been declared a classic my McGraw-Hill, so it should be on your bookshelf!
This “how-to” book, with a foreword by Ken Blanchard, explains how a company can improve morale, retention, productivity, and team spirit among its employees. It is a delightful compilation of immediately applicable action ideas that anyone can adapt to their own work situation, wherever that may be.
The book discusses how to integrate into your organization the elements of a spirited workplace – Creative Communication; Atmosphere and Appreciation for All; Respect and Reason for Being; and Empathy and Enthusiasm. The multitude of creative ideas, most of which cost no money, will touch your heart and spirit and will make a difference in your workplace every single day.
