Invaluable

A business fable for anyone feeling overwhelmed, underpaid, and
frustrated in their job

From the author of The Myth of Multitasking comes
Invaluable, a business fable that empowers the frustrated
and overworked to understand the value of their time. At the
fictitious company GreenGarb, twenty-something Jason is discontent
in his entry-level position, feeling his skills and knowledge are
being underutilized; mid-level manager Tracy is overwhelmed by her
own workload and needy direct reports; and CEO Helen needs them to
sort it out productively. Jason's grandfather Charlie plants the
seed of a new perspective in Jason mind: before he can get a raise,
he must prove he deserves the raise. He must establish the value of
his time, rather than expecting to be paid what he thinks he is
worth. Time management consultant Phil helps them determine how
they spend their time, and what it costs, with easy-to-follow
worksheets that map what their actions and time are worth.

• Offers solid advice for determining just how "invaluable" you
  are to your boss and customers

• Shows how to create a productive framework of cooperation in
  the workplace

• Includes an appendix of worksheets and examples that offer
  concrete tools that can be applied immediately

The Myth of Multitasking taught readers how to take
control of their time. Invaluable shows readers how to
increase the value of the time they do spend working.
