Review: A wonderful book that is chock full of useful strategies to bring more fun and fulfillment to the work place. This entertaining book was the perfect tool to help me overhaul the mood in our organization. Not only do our employees appear more excited about work, but absentism has dropped. The saying is true "It's the little things in life" and those little things can make all the difference for you and your employees.

Summary: Both are FABULOUS!
Review: All this book is is a collection of ideas the author got from her time working with high schools. Most nearly every example is from a high school setting which does not directly apply to business settings. Many ideas are so ridiculous and obvious that you will go crazy thinking why you spent [the money] on this book.

Summary: Looking Forward to Monday Morning
Review: As a professional trainer, "Looking Forward to Monday Morning" is a marvelous addition to my collection of icebreakers and team building exercises. The book is full of a wide range of straightforward ideas to show appreciation for employees. Organizations that implement even a few of the ideas in this book will find they have happier, more productive employees who enjoy coming to work. I strongly recommend this book to managers, supervisors, and others who are responsible for the esprit de corps of their work environment.

Summary: Fight the "Monday" Blahs
Review: Dr. Hodges has done it again. This book is filled with hundreds of easy to do and manage activities designed to bring any workplace alive. Whatever the situation: retirements, birthdays, holiday celebrations, "thank you"s, or "Atta Boy/Atta Girl" recognitions, Diane has plenty of ideas for managers or even co-workers. This book shows just how easy it can be to make someone's day at work special. This book is well thought out, written, and thorough. It contains page after page of examples. It's a one point source of ways to make Monday mornings less tedious and more fun. Want to make your employees look forward to the workweek? Then this is the "must have" book for you. William R.

Summary: Both are FABULOUS!
Review: I saw Dr. Hodges present ideas from her book at a national conference and she was FABULOUS! She uses her trademark humor and unfailing sense of what matters and what works. She combines her experiences as a Human Resources Director and school administrator and presents ideas on how to show recognition and appreciation and create a fun environment for staff members. Both she and the book are Great!

Review: I use to start worrying about going back to work on Sunday. It could ruin 1/2 of my weekend. Now thanks to this book I really do look forward to going to work on Monday. I look at things differently now. Thank you for this book!
