That They Matter

Here’s what I know to be true, nobody gives their best for a paycheck exchange.

We like to pretend that business is just business and niceties like “thank you” don’t matter. But what differentiates great companies that attract and keep extraordinary talent willing to give it their all – to put their heart and soul into what they do – is that they recognize the human investment being made. Heart and soul cannot be commoditized.

People need to know that they’re seen. That they matter. That is the greatest gift we can give each other.
