‘Knowledge breeds confidence. Educate yourself on the rules of etiquette. Eliminate as many of etiquette’s unknowns as possible.’

‘When things change, you need to make sure you don’t ‘starve to death’ waiting for things to go back to the way they used to be. Doing things the way you always have, being warm and fuzzy in your comfort zones, can be the greatest enemy to your potential.’

‘Don’t be afraid of silence. Silence is loud. It allows you the time to think and articulate your thoughts more effectively.’

‘To become indispensable, you have to make connections with people. Connecting begins with listening.’

‘Stop and laugh. Most people are too serious, and it really will not matter in a hundred years. Don’t be afraid to laugh at yourself. Laughter is contagious- spread it around your workplace.’

‘Eliminate all jokes that could compromise your reputation … period.’

‘Don’t take yourself too seriously. No one else does.’

‘Every meal is business. Every open bar is business. Wherever you are, you have the opportunity to demonstrate that you are different-you are Indispensable!

‘Even when you are having a bad day, you can be a positive person at work.’

‘Stay away from negative groups and people. Don’t let them drag you down.’

‘Focus on making things better, no matter what circumstances come along.’
