An Introduction to Robin Sharma

10Jul08

For those of you who don’t know who Robin Sharma is, I honestly feel lucky to introduce you to him. Sharma is a world-renown leadership coach who has written a number of bestsellers including my favourite book, The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari (honestly, a must read). I am linked in to his blog and receive e-mail updates from him every other day or so which I find fascinating.

Anyways, today he penned a great piece on the value of joy and passion in the workplace. I really, really encourage all of you to click here and read his entry. It is especially valuable for those of you who are/will be working closely with clients, customers, and/or guests in your professional careers (ie. all of you). Here is part of his entry… just to give you a bit of a taste of what he wrote:

In my own personal development, I’m working on gratitude more than ever before. So one of my new best practices is to voice thanks at every possible opportunity-whether that means telling a grocery clerk he’s amazing or reminding my executive assistant she’s world-class or complimenting a chef in a restaurant for sharing her creative gifts with me and those i love.
