Positivity
forever: the end of the beginning.
Summary:
"Is your office a place of soul-destroying negativity? Corporate trainer Shola Richards, creator of The
Positivity
Solution
blog (thepositivitysolution.com), is about to change that forever. "My mission was clear: I needed to fix the problems facing the workplace. I came up with the
solution
: We need to treat each other better. Period." Shola Richards had reached the end of the road: after nearly two years at a soul-sucking job, he felt numb and suicidal. So he quit and devoted himself to nothing less than transforming the workplace, turning it into a space of respect, courtesy, and endless energy. Banish on-the-job bullying, put meaning back into
work
, and enhance coworkers' happiness and engagement. The author explains why inaction is insane, why we must move forward with
positivity
, and why the "abc" employees (asshats, bullies, and complainers) are so destructive.
