“Respect Above Money”

Jan 26, 2018 | Friday Quotes

“Never overestimate the value of money…cash is important, but sometimes not as important as respect, thanks, integrity, or the thrill of a job well done.”

-Mark H. McCormack

This thought is the same for safety processes: while money is helpful for resources, it’s understanding risk and the benefits and detriments it presents that makes the difference. But to make it all work, the key is the tenets of respect, thanks, integrity and the thrill of the job that go a long way to drive good performance.
