“Thought this book had some very interesting insights. It discusses the need to provide employees with knowledge of how they help other by the work they do, a way to measure their work and with the knowledge that they are cared about as an individual and that their lives matter. I think it has many applications to family life, and am waiting now as Michael reads it to see what he thinks about it, both as a manager and a father.”
