Small Budget, Big Payback: Employee Recognition for
Challenging Times
In difficult economic
times employee morale can take a beating. Employee recognition is one of the
most cost-effect ways we can maintain and even improve morale.
Effective employee
recognition will...
-
Increase productivity
-
Improve engagement
-
Reduce turnover and on-boarding expense
-
Increase communication
-
Reduce errors and complaints
-
Increase sales
-
Improve safety
But when does recognition
produce these kinds of results?
"As a new sales
manager, I found that by applying the principals in Make Their Day!
I have been able to create a healthy, success driven culture for my team.
Since reading this book and attending the workshop my team has exceeded
sales goals every quarter." Regional Sales Director
You get these kinds of
results when employees genuinely feel valued. The Make Their Day
approach to employee recognition is based on years of research into what makes
recognition meaningful.
"My good, solid
performers have become stars."
VP of
Support Services
Companies that attract
and keep great employees have over 70 percent satisfaction with employee
recognition while the average organization has between 40 and 50 percent
satisfaction.
Make Their Day research shows that to achieve high satisfaction, employees
want managers to drive recognition efforts. They want frequent and effective
praise and appreciation. They want managers who understand their strengths,
talents, and aspirations. They want managers who listen and care.
Are your employees
receiving the recognition they want? In
Make Their Day! Employee Recognition That Works you will find a
24-question recognition survey that you can use to assess the full spectrum of
meaningful recognition.
Real recognition is a lot
more than service plaques and sales awards. It is a manager-driven approach to
employee recognition that produces real results for both managers and their
organizations.
"With one particularly troublesome member of my team, the
results have been phenomenal!" IT Manager
Don’t let the current
economy convince you that there is nothing you can do. Well executed employee
recognition produces results, even with:
-
a very limited budget,
-
practically no time to implement, and/or
-
overworked, skeptical managers.
Recognition isn't difficult, expensive or time-consuming.
You can be successful!
Whether you are a manager
or supervisor looking to build skills or are in charge of developing a
recognition program for your company, you will find all the information you
need on this website.
