PREFACE
Work is an important aspect of human life which gives a person worth. This is because when work is done and the results are evident it leads to impact and influence which consequently validates your worth at the workplace. A person’s worth at the work place is also attributed to the kind of contribution he makes and the relevance of the contribution to the workplace. An employee becomes relevant at his workplace, when the impact of his work is evident and his influence is undeniable.
I recall when I was on the verge of publishing this book. I needed a guide and so I had to consult an author who had a better understanding and experience on how to go about this publication. I informed a colleague and he recommended that I met a young man who had just published some books. After contacting him, we scheduled an appointment and upon my encounter with him and the discussion we had, I became more passionate about publishing my book and even writing more books. I saw his works, I perused through his publications and was deeply inspired and motivated to utilize my gifts to make positive impacts in the lives of others.
After that encounter it became more clear to me that your worth is a function of the value you add and the impact you make through your work while utilizing the gifts you possess. Whether you are an employee or an entrepreneur, it is your responsibility to define the kind of impact you want to make through your work.
The workplace is basically defined by its workforce and the services rendered. People attach great importance to a workplace by the quality of services they receive. When the right services are rendered, the workplace becomes a place of great worth to people and its workforce.
I believe as you read this book you will gain more insights on how to add value to your workplace and make the desired impact needed for the overall advancement of your organization.

INTRODUCTION
Far and away the best prize that life offers is the chance to work hard at work worth doing."
—Theodore Roosevelt, A former American President
The capacity to do work and produce useful results is a function of the ability to utilize the gifts and resources at your disposal within a specific period of time. The purpose of embarking on any task or assignment is to produce results through the accomplishment of the set goals and objectives. This is what substantiates your relevance at the work place.
A person’s relevance at the work place is traced to the impact made during the hours spent at work. The worth of any individual at the workplace is also a function of how work is done during a period of time. An employee’s worth is a reflection of the value he adds at his workplace. Are you adding value to your organization or are you reducing its value? Do your colleagues and superiors miss you when you are absent from work or do they rejoice when you are not there? Are you a solution provider or a problem creator? Does your organization see you as an asset or a liability? Are you making positive impacts or are you a source of concern? Are you a source of inspiration or an embodiment of depreciation? These questions if answered candidly will give a true picture of your level of relevance at the
