WHAT A
DINNER PARTY
CAN TEACH ABOUT
Recognition
In the new book The Power of Thanks,
authors Eric Mosley and Derek Irvine
offer a neat metaphor for recognition.
“If it has no value, it has no value.”
We have a saying about recognition:
To illustrate, imagine you are invited
to a small dinner party.
Here are three scenarios:
You’re
Invited!
1
You arrive with absolutely
nothing in your hands.
S
CENARI
O
At the end of the dinner, you take out a piece
of paper, draw a big thumbs-up on it.
You hand it to your host, and say, “This was a
magical dinner, I really like your dinner. I’m gonna
like you on Facebook! Heck, this dinner was so good
I’m going to give you a second thumbs-up!”
That’s like badging.
2
You say, “That was a really fabulous dinner;
you must have spent a lot of money
in putting this together.”
S
CENARI
O
“Let me get my wallet out, I want to contribute
for how much . . . Here’s $50 for what I ate.”
That’s like recognizing
with cash.
3
You arrive with a bottle of wine,
chocolates, or flowers.
S
CENARI
O
Or you offer to bring a special dessert,
which amounts to coming prepared
to show appreciation.
And perhaps after the event you send a
handwritten note or an entertaining e-mail.
And yes, you also post a photo on Facebook!
That’s social recognition.
Badging, cash, or giving a considered sign
of appreciation — which do you think
makes the best impression?
