I ran across the "Important Words for the Workplace" while browsing my hard drive. I don't know where I found it, but I thought it was very good. Below the Workplace list you will find one my Dad e-mailed me years ago regarding relationships.
I list them here because part of being a good Project Manager is building trust among your team members, and an important part of building trust is being empathetic, and letting people know you care.

How True!
I had seen the top workplace list before, but the relationship list is new and practical.
Nice Website!
Thanks for this. On an old list I had the most important word in management was "Sorry" - now it's "I". Sign of the times!!
