Turkey. Football. Family time. These are all wonderful components of Thanksgiving. But, in my opinion, the most important part is often overlooked: Practicing gratitude. What are you thankful for in 2024? What lessons did this year bring you? How did you grow both personally and professionally? I encourage you to pose these questions at the dinner table. They will not only make for great conversation … but an opportunity to reflect and give thanks. That’s what Thanksgiving is all about, after all. Happy Thanksgiving! #SHRM #HR #HumanResources #Thanksgiving #Thankful #Gratitudes #Positivity
