Recognition is an acknowledgment, an expression of appreciation for an individual or a team, their positive behaviours, personal efforts and contributions. When authentic, timely and adapted to the person, recognition can go a long way in enhancing employee engagement. From whom would you most like to receive recognition? What forms of recognition do you appreciate most?
According to Dr. Gary Chapman and Dr. Paul E. White, there are 5 Languages of Appreciation in the Workplace and they can be used as a process to determine how individuals prefer to be recognized by keeping in mind that:
- There are different ways to communicate appreciation and encouragement to others.
- An individual will value a certain language more than another.
- The most effective communication of appreciation and encouragement occurs when the message is sent in the language of appreciation most valued by the receiver.
- An individual may have a primary language, as well as a secondary language to consider.
- Messages of appreciation and encouragement in languages not valued by the receiver will tend to miss the mark.
