Many employees feel unrecognized and under-rewarded, with studies showing workplace dissatisfaction at record highs.But what if the things that are currently making you unhappy simply lost their power over you? What if you could go to work feeling energetic and excited, regardless of any external circumstances? What does it take to be valued,appreciated—even a favorite at the office?
