  1. Kevin: I am not sure how I started receiving your emails, but I am very glad I have. I look forward to watching your videos and always learn something from them. They are short enough to review without spending a lot of time, and are a welcome break from the routine of the day. Again, always very informative and always give me something to think about and share with other supervisors to whom I provide training.

    Thanks again, keep them coming!

  13. Excellent episode, Kevin! This is a topic near and dear to my heart, and one I practice regularly as I welcome and orient new hires to our company every couple of weeks. It is remarkable how this simple courtesy opens doors and builds trust. Calling someone by name is a gift that keeps giving.

    Employees are often surprised when weeks might go by before I see them again, and I am still able to recall their names in most cases.
