Promote This Employee!

At work I was training two dozen managers on how to work effectively as a team.
One activity involves selecting cards printed with words that describe you.
All the employees focused on which traits they have,
except one guy.
Silently he’d select a card and, handing to a coworker, softly suggest that she or he might want it.
“You’re so organized, Jess, I thought this might be perfect for you.”
In a world of “what about MY needs” he was a welcome relief.
