What is the best way to appreciate someone so that it comes across as authentic?

We started with Jeff Glauser giving us three great tips:

• Be specific
• Pay attention to your nonverbal communication
• Be consistent

 

Chelle Shapiro chimed in by warning about the compliment sandwich and how it can come across as backhanded and inauthentic to tuck criticism in with praise.

 

Be Justin Dorsey works in the HR space it was great to have him bring up Love Languages. I don’t think I have ever worked in a corporation that cared about how I would like to be praised.

 

He also gave us a mid-drop. Ask. Just ask people how they would like to be appreciated. 

 

Towards the end of the conversation I wondered about how we can be better at noticing when we think positive things about someone else and making sure we share them. It must have been a hard question because I cut out a long silence while the panelists thought about it.

 

How do you like to be appreciated so they you can hear it and not feel awkward?
