They say that experience is the best teacher, but only the lessons are bought dearly. As managers, our careers are full of ups and downs, victories and setbacks, smart moves and regrettable blunders.

Ever walk into a Starbucks and get the sense that the baristas genuinely care about making your experience an enjoyable one?

We all know that major life events like job loss, marriage, or a death in the family can trigger overwhelming stress.
