EP 160 – Appreciation Increases Engagement

An effective leader shows their employees and their team that they appreciate all their hard work and loyalty. When an employee goes above and beyond on a project, a supportive leader shows their appreciation. When the team achieves a difficult objective, a great leader celebrates
their accomplishment.

Wondering what you can do for your staff to thank them for all their efforts?

Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Employee Appreciation Day:

Celebrate with food. It may be a breakfast, a catered lunch, or a smoothie break during the afternoon slump. What about a team cooking challenge? Provide each team with various ingredients and see what they can put together and enjoy the fun.

Give the gift of time. Give your team a time off coupon that they can use at their choosing.

Shout it out. Give a shoutout to a member who has completed a task or gone above and beyond to meet a deadline.

Send it. A hand-written note, sent to the employee’s home, is an unexpected and genuine way of showing appreciation.

Bring in a massage therapist to do 15-minute chair massages. A little bit of pampering goes along way.

Your employees are your most precious asset, let them know that they are valued and appreciated!
