Die fünf Sprachen der Mitarbeitermotivation

Motivated employees are invaluable to companies. But how can employee motivation be maintained over the long term when most incentive systems only have a short-term effect? Studies have shown that the most significant factor influencing job satisfaction is not the salary, but the recognition and appreciation that individuals receive in the workplace. How can we create a work environment where individuals feel acknowledged?

Dr. Gary Chapman and Dr. Paul White have discovered that there are five different languages of employee motivation through appreciation. What one employee perceives as appreciation may not have the same effect on another. However, when a supervisor or colleague learns to speak the language of appreciation that is most important to the individual, that person truly feels recognized and responds with renewed loyalty and increased commitment to the company. Ultimately, this not only impacts the work environment but also contributes to the overall success of the organization.
