About World Compliment Day

World Compliment Day originated in the early 2000s. Hans Poortvliet, a recognition professional from the Netherlands, started this creative day to spread praise and positivity. March 1 is all about consciously reflecting on what someone does well, and letting them know you sincerely appreciate them. A sincere personal compliment doesn't cost anything, but can carry a big impact.

On World Compliment Day, we invite you to celebrate this tradition of uplifting one another— and what better way to spark those meaningful conversations than by gathering around the table?

Sharing a meal has always been a way for us all to connect. It's also where compliments naturally find their place. From praising a home-cooked dish to admiring the effort it took to bring people together, these words of appreciation and support make a big difference. So, share a compliment and let the people in your life know how much they mean to you today!
