The 5 Languages of Appreciation in the Workplace… por Gary Chapman
Bought this to read as part of a workplace initiative. I've taken the online inventory and, frankly, I don't agree with the results.
While I appreciate the information and tools, it was more of a long advertisement for their MBA inventory.
This is a self help book which is a spin-off of Chapman's The Five Love Languages. Like his other spinoffs, Chapman takes the concepts of the love languages, which he orginally applied to marriage, and adjusts them for other contexts. I think five love languages of children was particularly brilliant. This focuses specifically on the workplace.
The five love languages morph into the languages of appreciation (love is inappropriate in the workplace!) and the attached 'MBA assessment' focuses on four of the original love languages--words of affirmation, quality time, acts of service and giving. Physical touch is addressed but is carefully bounded in a way that would be workplace-appropriate.
Like the original book, I think Chapman and his co-author Paul White do a good job of exploring the different ways of communicating appreciation (or love). It was interesting to see how he adapted the original material.

The author of the love languages concept teamed with business consultant to apply the idea to work. I found the result meaningful and the adaptation practical. For example, touch has been deprecated to a suitable place, and there is recognition that the top needs can be met in varying ways depending on the situation. What I found most valuable was the point that recognition and appreciation are two different things. Appreciation can be applied more broadly, and perhaps more authentically.
