Tom Bronson, host of the Maximize Business Value podcast, brings in business owner and author of The Gratitude Effect, our guest Rich Cavaness. In this episode, Rich describes a near death experience that leads to the creation of his book, which covers topics about shifting your mindset, optimizing your outcomes and boosting emotional well-being. Tom and Rich discuss the impact an attitude of gratitude can have not just on life itself but on business value, including an increase in productivity and help with achieving your goals.
