The first recommendation in the post is to 'Show a Little Appreciation' and goes on to talk about rewarding or recognising people at least monthly for their work.
In the great workplaces I see appreciating people is much more than monthly rewards or recognition, rather it's appreciating people as a way of being every day. Rewards and formal recognition help, yet in my observation they are small pieces of the jigsaw because as William James observed long ago:
Here's 3 suggestions for ensuring appreciating people is a way of being in your workplace every day
1) Help people to clarify their roles in terms of relationships and value delivery to each person, particularly other employees and customers/clients. Build appreciation into the conversation when value is delivered.
2) Ask your employees how value delivery can be celebrated and people appreciated as a way of being. Implement their suggestions.
3) In collaboration with your employees ensure weekly check-ins, after action reviews, and peer reviews are mandatory conversations in your workplace.
Accelerate appreciation and accountability levels will accelerate too.
As always should you like some help with the above please contact me on +61 418 807 898.
Be remarkable.
