You’ll leave with practical tools to build trust\, improve morale\, and help every team member feel seen and valued. \n\nIn this course\, you will: \n\n 	Learn the Five Languages of Appreciation and how different preferences influence connection and motivation at work.\n 	Reflect on your own appreciation style and how it shapes the way you give and receive feedback.\n 	Discover how to tailor appreciation in ways that feel meaningful to others and build stronger relationships.\n\nThe course fee varies between $70 and $100 depending on the ticket type. \n\nThis course will take place on May 20\, 2026\, between 9 am – 10:30 am (PDT\, Vancouver).
