“I think when people say they dread going into work on Monday morning, it's because they know they are leaving a piece of themselves at home. Why not see what happens when you challenge your employees to bring all of their talents to their job and reward them not for doing it just like everyone else, but for pushing the envelope, being adventurous, creative, and open-minded, and trying new things?” PeopleThinkingKnowsTryingHomeHappensMotivationalJobsChallengesMorningCreativePiecesTalentRewardsLeavingEmployeePushingWhy NotDreadNew ThingsMondayAdventurousOpen MindedEnvelopesMonday MorningTrying New ThingsPushing The Envelope Book:Delivering Happiness: A Path to Profits, Passion, and Purpose Source: Delivering Happiness: A Path to Profits, Passion, and Purpose
“The distribution of tasks among the various employees follows a simple rule, which is that the duty of the members of each category is to do as much work as they possibly can, so that only a small part of that work need be passed to the category above. This means that the clerks are obliged to work without cease from morning to night, whereas the senior clerks do so only now and then, the deputies very rarely, and the Registrar almost never.” NeedsMeanNightSimpleMorningDutyMembersTasksVariousCeaseEmployeeCategoriesNow And ThenSeniorDistributionObligedSmall PartsClerksDeputies Author:Jose Saramago
“I gave a talk on gender stuff at Facebook one morning and a man didn't come. It was optional; he didn't have to come. But he sent a note saying, "I missed your meeting because I drove my kids to school so my wife could do something else. Thank you for making that possible." I think that employee is a loyal employee for Facebook and I think more companies should want that kind of loyalty.” ThinkingMenWantShouldKindKidsSchoolStuffCompanyMorningWifeMeetingsNotesGenderMy WifeLoyaltyEmployeeLoyalOptionalMissed YouI Missed You Author:Sheryl Sandberg
