Do you ever…
Wonder if your work culture has room for improvement?
Feel like your leadership is uninspired and unable to motivate others?
Worry that the people at your organization are disconnected from their work and one another?
If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone, and you’re in the right place. Gravitude is the essential guide to finding more joy and purpose in the workplace. By cultivating a practice of gratitude, you can create a happier, healthier work environment that supports both your people and your business growth.
“I've often said gratitude completes the connection between an organization and its people. Mark Bowling successfully conveys this mission-critical message, empowering businesses to foster cultures of excellence. At the heart of such excellence–even in an age of automation–is the celebration of people. This is the essence of Gravitude–a much-needed call for organizations to prioritize their people, creating a thriving, purpose-driven workplace.”
Horst Schulze, Co-Founder & Former President/CEO, The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company

“We want to flow upward and outward, like a beautiful fountain, instead of downward and inward, like a drain. Usually, people tend to be one or the other. When I look inward, I tend to go downward. When I look outward, I usually move upward. This book is about becoming a fountain.”
Tim Elmore, founder and CEO of Growing Leaders
