– Through Reading and Sharing.
"I find that there is great benefit for all of us to get out of the everyday rat race on occasion to take a more philosophical view of our work and to keep ourselves centered. I believe reading, reflecting, and sharing our thoughts helps us to be better managers, reinforces our sense of purpose, and strengthens our ability to weather the next storm and solve the next problem by expanding our field of vision and growing our arsenal of potential tools to positively affect the work environment."
Barbara K. Moore, MCR, SLCR
Director, Global Portfolio Management
MetLife Corporate Real Estate
