Experience the Power of 'Good Morning' !!!



1) It maintains the standards of basic civility that we're all entitled to at work. Like 'please' and 'thank you', these two little words also go a long way towards improving communication and the overall atmosphere.


2) ’Good morning’ humanizes our co-workers. We're real people, not just cogs in a pointlessly spinning wheel. Show some humanity.


3) Provides for a more democratic environment, where everyone from the CEO to the mail clerk get to share in a friendly two-second exchange.


4) It’s quick (and relatively painless). If it is painful, you should probably be looking for a new job or scheduling time for some serious self-reflection.


5) It’s free.


6) Acknowledging the mere presence of someone is interpersonal communications. Don’t YOU want to be noticed? You might tell yourself otherwise, but at the end of the day, we all want to be recognized.


7) Saying ‘Good Morning’ makes things less awkward when you inevitably have to address your co-worker later in the day. Start the day off on the right foot and avoid potential stresses later in the day.


HAVE A BLESSED DAY !!
