Most people like to be recognized for a job well-done.
A bonus, a free dinner, even a certificate saying we accomplished something.

Think interpreters, fact-checkers, and anesthesiologists.
David Zweig profiles these people and their work in his bookInvisibles: The Power of Anonymous Work in an Age of Relentless Self-Promotion.
