The simple act of praise

The cabin crew on SQ910 was elegant, stylish, good looking, articulated and tall. I told her that while I shuffled past her while disembarking, adding "they should start  hire people like you again."

Having been brought up in my early selling years to crack the whip, I now know that a pat on the back accomplishes more than a slap on the face. Do not underestimate the impact a simple act of praise can have on the lives of others.....a mentor who died suddenly at the age of 59 said not to forget how important it is to compliment and praise others so we can never feel sorry for something left unsaid.
