For those of
us who live far enough north to worry about snow, Labor Day signifies the end
of summer, the beginning of fall colors, and the advent of cold winter days. It
is a day dedicated to celebrate the social and economic achievements of the
American worker and the contributions workers have made to the strength,
prosperity, and well-being of our great country.
Research
show us that great leaders live with an attitude of gratitude and that every
day is celebrated. Workers feel that they are a part of something larger then
themselves, that the vision is clear, the workers are valued, and they have a
voice which is heard. From the leader, a simple thank you, job well done, a pat
on the back, a brief conversation about life outside the office, pays great dividends
without a cost… and yet, void of such a culture costs a great deal.
So this
holiday weekend take time to consider how to celebrate “Labor Day” more than
once a year, and perhaps the “winters” won’t be as harsh…
Be good to
yourself…
