You never know how diverse your career can be. I think it's wonderful. My life has always been the next page, not the last page.

Without doubt, there are lots of ways to measure the pulse of a business. But if you have employee engagement, customer satisfaction, and cash flow right, you can be sure your company is healthy and on the way to winning.

Celebrating creates an atmosphere of recognition and positive energy. Imagine a team winning the World Series without champagne spraying everywhere. And yet companies win all the time and let it go without so much as a high five. Work is too much a part of life not to recognize moments of achievement. Make a big deal out of them. If you don't, no one will.

Keep learning; don't be arrogant by assuming that you know it all, that you have a monopoly on the truth; always assume that you can learn something from someone else.

The best thing workers can bring to their jobs is a lifelong thirst for learning.

I guarantee you it will not be anyone from the outside.

Every employee, not just the senior people, should know how a company is doing.
