Inspire Greatness is an engaging, page-turner of a book that includes a very innovative approach to employee motivation and engagement.  We’ve applied the guidance Matt offers in this book to help us increase employee engagement, dramatically reduce employee turnover, and navigate the uncharted territory of being the first national law firm to implement a four-day workweek for both attorneys and staff.  I highly recommend this book!
