This episode takes huge inspiration from the work of Gary D Chapman in his books The 5 Love Languages: The Secret to Love That Lasts and The 5 Languages of Appreciation in the Workplace.
In a super competitive applicant market, we must ensure our hiring and onboarding processes are attractive. By understanding the 'love languages' we can hit all of these points. And more than that...if we understand our employees' love language we can share the love and speak their language.
- Words Of Affirmation: Choose Kind Words Wisely
- Actions Speak Louder Than Words: Acts Of Service
- Quality Time: Show Your Support In-Person or pitch in and get involved
- Material Matters: Gifts and your onboarding experience
- Physical Touch: I strongly advise against this in a work setting but here is how it translates!
