To communicate the information clearly, the results are not only reported in numerical form but also illustrated through pie charts.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Secondly, to help colleagues and supervisors get to the heart of the matter quickly, we ask each employee to identify the one <strong>most <\/strong>important act of appreciation to them.

While the primary focus of the <em>MBA Inventory <\/em>is to identify the ways colleagues <em>prefer<\/em> to be shown appreciation, we felt identifying the actions to avoid would be valuable information to include \u2013 so that well-meaning colleagues do not inadvertently make a mistake by using an undesired action and unintentionally create offense.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Why is it important to know what your colleagues <strong>don\u2019t<\/strong> want you to do when trying to show them appreciation?

For example, an Act of Service may look very different in a medical setting, a public school, a general business workplace, or for remote employees.
