This is an excellent book. It focuses on the idea of appreciation and how each of us have different interpretations and meaning.

Good Reads
A spin on Chapman’s “The 5 Love Languages” in the context of workplace appreciation and morale. Would highly recommend for people who work in organizations where they are in direct supervisory positions of paid or volunteer staff.
