Winning Relationships with 5 Languages of Love

“Have you ever found wondered why you were not able to connect with some of the people
around you? Have you wondered what would the outcome be like if you were better able to
connect with some of your team members on a project?

The premise of The 5 Love Languages™ book by Gary Chapman is quite simple: different people
with different personalities give and receive love in different ways. By learning to recognize
these preferences in yourself and in the people around you – even at the workplace, you can
learn to identify the root of your conflicts, connect more profoundly, and truly begin to grow
closer.

You may wonder, how then do we bring these 5 Love Languages to the workplace – seems like
too lovey-dovey for work. Let’s take a look at the workplace, what exactly is the motivating
factor that builds relationships – do all of us want a pat on the back? Well, apparently not.

It turns out there are 5 languages of appreciation in the workplace.

‘The 5 Languages of Appreciation in the Workplace: Empowering Organizations by Encouraging
People’ is a best-selling book, written by Gary Chapman and Paul White.
It’s reasonable to assume that receiving genuine appreciation has considerable benefits for
individuals! As an officer, you have the opportunity to provide that to your team members.
Forge better relationships with your team by knowing what matters to them most in a
relationship.

This workshop aims to explore the different ways that people are programmed to express and
receive love and appreciation at work. The content of this workshop will be based on the The 5
Love Languages and ‘The 5 Languages of Appreciation in the Workplace: Empowering
Organizations by Encouraging People’. It will take you on an experiential journey of your
personal love language and explore how you can integrate this with the knowledge of your
team’s Love and Appreciation Language.
