Show that you care.
Are you an Ebenezer Scrooge when it comes to reward and recognition for your staff? How many times last week did you phone a member of your staff, or better yet, visit in person to say that you appreciated something they did? When was the last time you wrote a note of thanks? Do you routinely recognize special efforts during staff meetings? When was the last time you awarded a certificate of appreciation to an employee for a job well done? Are employees working "behind the scenes" recognized? Do you have a system in place to recognize groups who work well as a team? If you answered "no" to most of these questions, don't fret. Establishing a reward and recognition program is relatively easy to do. And, it won't break the budget either.
