Times When You Should Just Say "Thanks", But Don't

Career Development Leadership Stakeholder Management

Someone shared a post - "Times When You Should Just Say "Thanks", But Don't".

Say “Thanks” when you're receiving a compliment.
Say “Thanks” when you’re running late.
Say “Thanks” when you're comforting someone.
Say “Thanks” when you're receiving helpful feedback.
Say “Thanks” when you're receiving unfair criticism.
Say “Thanks” when someone gives you unsolicited advice.
Say “Thanks” when you're not sure if you should thank someone.

Keeping above in view, How often, do you say "Thanks" to someone?

Agree with Sante. This is one area we take it for granted and stop giving appreciation & thanks to our stakeholder including customers.

Saying Thanks is least you can do to express gratitude :)

Seems the PM community needs to work lot on this. While few never forget to say Thanks, majority will never take time to express it. Come on people you should say thanks, when someone reads your posts, question, blog, etc. and replies back. It will not make you lower :D

Thanks Naina :)
