“People work for money but go the extra mile for recognition, praise and rewards. ”
Dale Carnegie
The Why
Recognizing employee accomplishments increases morale, productivity and ultimately, profitability.
The Tips
1. Celebrate little wins. Each victory gets the team closer to your ultimate goal.
2. Make the reward commensurate with the accomplishment. How about a vacation for
25 years of dedicated and committed service to your organization?
3. Personalize the recognition. Employees feel special when the reward is unique.
4. Add a thank you note to cash gifts. 76% of people keep handwritten notes.
