Kristin Tillquist's expertise in business spans politics, the law, and internationalism. She is the chief of staff to the mayor of the City of Riverside, the capital city of one of the largest, fastest-growing counties in America. Working with politicians from throughout California and the nation, Tillquist knows the techniques of influence that work...and those that don't. A former attorney, she is now a noted business consultant, inspirational speaker, columnist, and teacher/trainer on the value of professionalism and kindness in business.

Offers important tips and practical suggestions for gaining an advantage in business through acts of kindness and respect by highlighting how a good rapport and caring attitude benefits the bottom line, creating a culture of kindness at work, and avoiding barriers when using kindness as a strategy for success.
