The year is starting to come to an end, which means holiday gift lists are starting to be formulated. You will not only need to figure out what you are getting for your family and friends but also any employees that you may manage.
In a world where keeping good employees is hard to come by, it is more important than ever to let them know how valued they really are. Without them, you may quite literally be out of a job yourself and your business may not exist.
