About World Compliment Day

A family of four cooking in the kitchen at home

World Compliment Day originated in the early 2000s. Hans Poortvliet, a recognition professional from the Netherlands, started it 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. Genuine compliments don't cost anything – and their impact delivers big!

On World Compliment Day, its everyone’s time to shine! Let’s bring it all together as we celebrate this tradition of uplifting one another and spark meaningful moments by gathering together around the dinner table.

Sharing a meal brings connection. It's also a place where compliments will feel natural. Share your compliments with the cook; notice the effort and love; appreciate the moment aloud. These words (you’ll know what to say!) make a big difference. So, share a compliment and let the people in your life know how much they mean to you today.
