This episode explores the often overlooked practice of acknowledgments and their vital importance, especially in educational settings. Yes- we said overlooked! Acknowledgments (also called Generous Appreciation), described as specific positive statements about someone, are discussed as a powerful tool for creating connections. This is distinguished from general kind words.
Becca emphasizes the neurological impact of acknowledgments, explaining that they trigger the release of oxytocin in the brain, fostering genuine human connection. It is important we move beyond generic expressions of gratitude ("Thanks for your hard work this year") and this episode discussed ways to create meaningful acknowledgments for teachers, leaders, and friends. Develop a habit of generously appreciating those around you, not only in professional settings but also in personal relationships.
