A book that was recommended by a colleague who enjoyed Dr. Robyne Hanley-Dafoe at a conference keynote. Enjoying it so far - offering up some good insights in a relaxed writing style!

Having recently completed Lily Zheng's straightforward and insightful 'A Playbook to Achieve Equity Anywhere' course on LinkedIn, I decided to check out their books. Looking forward to exploring these!

Really enjoying this one, as well. The topic of culture has been top of mind lately and someone on LinkedIn recently recommended this in a post of some of their "go to" resources. It was very timely!

I found this book really informative. It talks about the 5 languages of appreciation in the workplace (Acts of Service, Quality Time, Words of Affirmation, Tangle Gifts, and Appropriate Physical Touch) and how employees value/appreciate different things. Some good tips on building reward and recognition programs with these values in mind as well as interacting with remote employees. The book comes with an assessment code that allows you to take their assessment to determine what your primary, secondary, and least-favored languages are. Very interesting!

This book, assessment and podcast are really helping teams find value because they recognize that each individual brings unique strengths and perspectives to the table, leading to more effective problem-solving, innovation, and overall team success
