Invaluable empowers the frustrated and overworked to understand what their time is worth and how they can, quite literally, spend it more profitably.

An engaging business fable, Invaluable tells the story of Jason, who is discontent in his entry-level position, feeling his skills and knowledge are underutilized; his manager, Tracy, who is overwhelmed by her own workload and seemingly needy direct reports; and their CEO, Helen, who needs them to sort it out productively. From an unexpected source, Jason learns a hard but invaluable lesson: before he can get a raise, he must prove his real dollar value, rather than expect to be paid what he thinks he is worth. Though at very different stages in their careers, Jason, Tracy, and Helen each learn how to determine the value of their time and actions, the best ways to spend their own time, and how to empower their colleagues to do the same.

With easy-to-use assessments and worksheets and ready-to-implement advice, Invaluable will help you:

• Determine exactly how "invaluable" you are to your boss and customers
• Discover your "Most Valuable Activities" and how to focus on them
• Create a framework of cooperation in the workplace
• Design systems and processes for maximum productivity
• Develop strategies to increase job security and income

In The Myth of Multitasking, Dave Crenshaw showed you how to gain more time, making you more present in both work and life. Invaluable will now show you how to maximize the very real dollar value of each working hour.
