053: Appreciation in the Workplace with Dr. Paul White
The Bill Perry Show
As a leader, are your attempts at intended appreciation with your team falling flat? Maybe it's because you're not speaking their language. Today, I'm talking with the man who literally wrote the book on appreciation at work, Dr. Paul White. He is the co-author of the book, Five Languages of Appreciation in The Workplace. It is hands down one of the best books that leaders can utilize in order to grow their sense of effective communication with their teams.

The Bill Perry Show
It is a new year. It's a new decade. Welcome to 2020! With these moments on the calendar, there's always the hope of great change. But the reality is the movement of dates on the calendar doesn't create change, something else has to happen. Very little change occurs until you make a significant change in the way you see the world. And this is the topic of this week’s podcast episode.

The holiday season is my favorite time of year. I grew up in a great family situation where holidays were marked with extended family time together with good food and great family engagements.

The Bill Perry Show
This week I am pleased to have Danny Ozment of Emerald City Productions on the show. Danny is the producer of this podcast and always works hard to make me sound good! Danny and I talk about the creative potential for leaders and human resources teams to utilize the medium of podcasting to drive vision, values and policies through every level of your organization!
info_outlineIn this episode, I talk about the path a leader has to take to create a culture that will engage, empower and inspire every team member and allow them to express their unique potential.
The path starts with clarity and alignment. Clarity and alignment represent the foundation organizational health. For a leader to experience maximum impact, their vision has to be clearly defined and they also must be aligned with their vision. People want to know that what they are waking up to do matters and why it matters. Team alignment around a shared vision is a primary component of a healthy organization.
Clearly defined values, behaviors around which your team is aligned, become a backbone of a healthy organization. When this is realized, this is the point where drama and toxic company culture begins to fade.
In this episode, you’ll hear about:
-
How processes can create clarity and alignment within organizations
-
The importance of creating a clear company vision
-
Vision alignment and organizational health 101
-
Core values and their development
