Appreciation workshop (with Miro template)

It's really important to share appreciation. With other people and yourself.

Your mindset changes. When you change your mindset to look for the good instead of the bad in the people around you, you begin to notice just how fantastic they are.

Your mood improves. Our mood and daily outlooks change when we focus on positive things rather than negative. Simply removing negative words from your vocabulary can have a tremendous effect.

This is a Miro board template you can use yourself: Appreciation workshop.

I’ve run this workshop with over 100 people in the past. But you can adapt the board to run it with a smaller group or a single team too.

The focus of the workshop is for everyone to tell their team mates and colleagues what they appreciate about them. It’s always hugely emotional. It can help people to see value that they weren’t aware of and realise the positive impact that they have on others at work. The best bit is the confidence it can help people to build.

We’re all more vulnerable and needy than we like to imagine. Authentically appreciating others will make you feel better about yourself. The human instinct for kindness and connection runs deep.
