The way to develop the best that is in a man is by appreciation and encouragement.
(Charles Schwab, Founder and chairman of the Charles Schwab Corporation)
Apparently, Schwab knows more than just how to help people invest their funds well. He understands what it means to invest in people. Men and women most often respond to words of thanks and support more than any other motivation.
For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope. (Romans 15:4)
