Everything I Need to Know About Staff Recognition I Learned from My Dog
Lessons in staff recognition can come from some most unlikely sources—a political pundit, a plumber’s mother, a primary school teacher, an employee on his day on the job, a reluctant shopper, a computer-hugging executive, a graffiti artist or a well-loved pet. Apply these simple, practical lessons in high-value, low-cost staff recognition to acknowledge staff—and others—for contributions to your success.
Here are a few of the lessons you will encounter during this presentation:
• money doesn’t buy loyalty, and likely never did
• never send employees lunch
• gossip can become an effective staff recognition tool
• the value of making families part of your recognition plans
• the one word that can diminish the value of praise and recognition
• co-workers may be the most powerful source of recognition
• successful people are frequently punished for their success
• the importance of a new employee’s first day
• managers need to hug their computers less and their staff more
• staff recognition isn’t always green, but it can become more environmentally friendly
