Unlike the average motivational guru who seems to have read a single book-the one he or she has just written-Waddington has read them all, so readers will learn what ancient thinkers, religious leaders, modern scientists and rival motivational guides teach about human behavior. ...This thin volume contains wisdom, scientific facts and insights from great figures, all in the service of planning a meaningful future. A thought-provoking work that bears rereading.Lasting Contribution[5] has won the following awards:USABookNews National Best Books AwardAxiom Business Book Awards Independent Publisher Book Awards Gold Eric Hoffer AwardPinnacle Book Achievement Award National Indie Excellence Award Global Ebook Award, Gold Waddington was Director [6] of Performance Measurement at Accenture and is the co-author of Return on Learning: Training for High Performance at Accenture (Agate, 2006).

These records include information such as cost rates, bill rates, total time with the organization, and promotion date. Accenture factored out the effects of personnel level, experience, inflation, and business cycles.The analysis showed that employees who take more training (top 50% relative to bottom 50%)[7]:Are 17 percent more chargeableHave 20 percent higher bill rates (due to promotions)Stay with the company 14 percent longerThese combined benefits yielded a net return on the investment of training of 3.53. For every dollar Accenture invested in training, there is a return of $3.53 in net benefits, after costs are recovered.Waddington's work on measuring return on investment in training won the following awards:Corporate University Xchange award for Excellence in Measurement Chief Learning Officer Magazine Impact Award Accenture's Inventor Award Gold award from Brandon Hall for Accenture’s Best Practice for Determining ROI ASTD Best AwardAnd US Patent #8224576 Waddington was with Accenture from 1997 to 2012.
