Best Care EAP’s July Training to Cover The Power of Appreciation in the Workplace

Join Best Care EAP’s (www.bestcareeap.org) Training Consultant Kim Hurst on Wednesday, July 14 from 9 to 10 a.m. for this month’s virtual training on The Power of Appreciation in the Workplace. This conversation will uncover appreciation preferences of others and learn creative and meaningful ways to cater to those preferences. Whether you’re new to the workforce or a tenured leader, walk away with ways to apply different appreciation methods which will make others feel truly valued and appreciated, resulting in better relationships and outcomes—not just professionally, but in your personal lives too!

A little appreciation goes a long way. When people feel appreciated in the workplace, they are 13% more productive, contribute to a more positive workplace culture, and exhibit enhanced motivation and engagement to their roles, teams and organizations. However, a recent USC study shows that in today’s environment many workers feel underappreciated, especially by their managers. People express and receive appreciation in different ways, so if you try to express appreciation in ways that aren’t meaningful to the other person, they may not feel valued at all. Also, thanks to the pandemic, you might have to get creative in the ways you show it, especially in a virtual environment!
