#EmployeeAppreciationDay

When employee is a vague concept

This tag caught my atten­tion today. My first thought was: “Who do we appre­ciate today?” I think it requires a moment to com­pute about it. That concept of employee was never vague as it is today. Self-employed, co-op, star­tups, free­lance, are all concepts that blend toge­ther in the busi­ness world. I would say that the first per­son we need to tell we do appre­ciate is our self. This will open the path to self-esteem that is quite impor­tant. But if we are stuck to the pre­vious layers, the belon­ging one for example, should we wait for our col­leagues to share with us their appre­cia­tion of us to believe we are doing great? Consi­der that an appre­cia­tion of someone else involves: 1. To consi­der if our appre­cia­tion stan­dard is cor­rect­ly set to apply it to someone else results. 2. To consi­der if our own appre­cia­tion of our results fits with our own set of values. This second point is quite impor­tant as doing some­thing great for others but that you can­not appre­ciate by your­self can lead to some inter­nal conflicts. In all cases, I would replace this tag with #Col­lea­gueAp­pre­cia­tion­Day as it sounds to me more inclusive.
