In “Winning Words,” Hjelseth applies his ideology to business strategy and shares tips such as evaluating employees, creating and executing strategic plans, and fostering relationships to achieve repeat-and-referral business. He wants to help people choose words of encouragement and affirmation and speak them to others, including family, their team and/or people in their organization.
