Episode Details

All of us need to feel appreciated, especially at work. But not everyone feels appreciated in the same ways… So how do we value our coworkers, employees, and bosses in ways that are meaningful to THEM? According to the book, the Five Languages of Appreciation in the Workplace, one way is through acts of service. You may be thinking, “I work all day, isn’t that enough?” But let’s be honest – you get PAID to work all day. Acts of service happen when we do something above and beyond what is expected of us. Nothing conveys care like lightening the load of someone in a crunch. Has someone shown you appreciation through an act of service recently? Have you shown appreciation in this way? Pay attention at work this week to ways that you can help out and go above and beyond.
