Staff Members at Valley Baptist Medical Center Receive “The Power of Nice” Awards

A few years after the release of our national bestseller, THE POWER OF NICE: How to Conquer the Business World with Kindness, we’re thrilled to see how our NICE message is still helping others in and out of the business world. 

Earlier this month, Dr. Anne McCracken presented the inaugural “Power of Nice” Awards, a program she began as the Chief of Surgery at Valley Baptist Medical Center, and she was kind enough to pass along this photo of the recipients, each of whom go the extra inch every day by displaying kindness to hospital patients, visitors, and employees.

No matter what your professional field or personal endeavor, the simple act of being nice can have enormous rewards for everyone around you.  Not only will valuing niceness in yourself and others give you more self confidence, it allows you to spread positive seeds wherever you go.  And over time, that positive energy has a powerful multiplier effect.

So, if you know someone who is making a difference in your workplace, community, or even in your home just by being nice, why not follow Dr. McCracken’s lead and take a minute to thank them?
