The Top Ten Laws of Respect

Book excerpt: Respect, a word that is often thrown about very loosely, as much as it is often used very strongly, is a very important concept in life. Everyone desires respect; however, we do not always show it and sometimes we do not receive it. In The Top Ten Laws of Respect - A Personal Guide, author and continuous improvement expert Niyi Taiwo unveils the long awaited top ten principles that govern respect between people. Taiwo thoughtfully introduces the foundational laws first, principles that govern the essence of respect; the influential laws second, principles that govern fundamental factors that explain the way you gain and lose respect; and the sustaining laws last, principles that govern factors and practices that enable a person to maintain respect. Taiwo masterfully deploys a series of powerful stories all through the book that facilitate a clear understanding of the subject and that make the reading experience enjoyable and enlightening. The timeless principles that make up these ten laws will serve as a guide for anyone interested in personal and professional development for years to come.
