The Employee Experience Advantage

Acknowledgments

When I wrote The Collaborative Organization, I was engaged. When I wrote my second book, The Future of Work, I was married. Now, with The Employee Experience Advantage, I'm a dad.

Each book thus far has been accompanied by a major life event and amazing new experiences. I am grateful for all of them and am excited to see what will happen when I write my next book!

My wife, Blake, has been my biggest source of inspiration, encouragement, and support. We spend most of our time together working and playing, and I'm so fortunate to have married my best friend. She makes me a better person. My family both near and far, I love you very much and appreciate your continued support and curiosity for what I do!

Serge da Motta Veiga from American University, thank you for your support and guidance during the launch of this project. Steve King from Emergent Research, your advice, e‐mails, and phone calls really helped shape this project; thank you so much for your brilliant insights.
