What is the greatest power?  Some people might say wealth; others might say a high-ranking position in business  or politics.  Still others might think belonging to an elite social class.  I am sorry, but if you think that, you are wrong.   The greatest power is the power of respect.  Respect  helps all of us realize our full potential.  By giving respect and also asking for respect, we are much happier  and much more successful than we would be otherwise.  Lack of respect is often the cause of problems in the workplace, our schools, familial and romantic relationships, friendships, and our daily interactions with the general public.  But, you do not have to take my word for it.   Deborah Norville  talks about these denominators in her newest book, The Power of Respect: Benefit from the Most Forgotten Element of Success.

In her new book, Ms. Norville not only talks about respect, what it can accomplish, and what can happen if  it is not present.  She also gives applicable advice and tips that can be applied to our everyday lives in order to reinforce the power of respect; or to start giving and asking for respect successfully.  She is very compassionate in the writing of this book, and you know exactly where she is coming from due to the concrete, real-life examples that she provides.  This book would be a beneficial read for anyone who is looking to reinforce or implement respect in either their professional, educational, or personal lives. 

"Do unto others as you would have  them to do unto you" (The Golden Rule) is the basic definition of respect.  However,  all of us can use a refresher from time to time as well as tips on how to properly implement respect in our daily lives.   Ms. Norville's book provides this and much more.
