Crew Finch joined Crew Mandela today, where they were asked to consider the question:
What is the one compliment you have received in your life that you have never forgot?
They also discussed the importance of compliments – and why humans feel the need to give them – before moving on to write out compliment cards for their Crew.
Feedback at the end included lots of comments about how good both the giver and receiver of the compliment felt, although Brendan did admit that the task felt a bit “awkward and forced.” So, my challenge to Crew is to give more compliments so they feel less awkward, and to accept them graciously. After all, “a compliment is verbal sunshine!”
Just look how happy Christian is with his compliment cards!
