A CULTURE OF POSITIVE APPRECIATION

 True appreciation can create an organizational culture in which appreciation and positive energy are the norms rather than the exceptions, a culture in which people feel valued for their work and help those around to do the same. Leading with appreciation creates a positive culture.


Being appreciative is the right thing to do from every angle. Everyone wants to feel valued; people want to know that their efforts make a difference, and that they are part of something greater than themselves. When they feel that their work is contributing positively, they are more likely to go beyond the norm. An appreciative culture sets a positive tone.

There’s not much neutral ground in this area. The absence of appreciation is not neutral. Saying nothing leads most people to think that their work is NOT valued. Then, negative energy, silo mentality and self-serving approaches creep into people’s work. The culture starts to go downhill—fast.
