Explains the important distinction between recognition and appreciation
Enhances teamwork and connection
Encourages a positive team culture that focuses on the good stuff, not on gossip, complaints, or negativity
Helps people effectively deal with adversity and stay positive in the midst of change and challenges
Provides tools and techniques for authentic empowerment
