Help 12/29 At the end of every year, people start to reflect back on what they've accomplished and what they're looking forward to in the next year. For many people, the accomplishment is surviving in this tumultuous climate. For others, it is hope for a new beginning in 2010. Perhaps a job, perhaps a different job or maybe just a boost in their current job.
Here's a quick suggestion that is effective, genuine and 100% free:
Take the opportunity to look back at the positive role each employee has made in your business. Set aside time to do this individually with each employee. Make it specific so it seems genuine.
We all know that the first quarter of the year is the beginning of hiring season. While the shot of recognition may not change the mind of a disgruntled employee who has already checked out, it is worth doing for those who may have been on the fence or who may feel less appreciated as more work has pilled up. There is zero risk and zero cost, just the time that the manager should already be spending on recognizing and communicating with their employees.
Is this a substitute for regular feedback? Of course not. But the timing couldn't be better to do it if you have been dropping the ball the past couple of months.
A bonus is nice, sure. Even a small token of gratitude isn't bad. But the part that's most important? The genuine recognition that they are making a difference today.
Make it count this year. And we at MeritBuilder are looking forward to working with more of you this next year to make your company culture a top priority.
11/25 We had a great turnout for our Veterans Day appreciation event. In all, we had sixteen responses. I wanted to share some of my favorites with all of you.
From Chad Kreutz:
Many years ago I interviewed a veteran, Dick Perkins of Richland, WA, about his WWII service. Barely out of high school he enlisted in the Navy and was soon on a battleship in the Pacific. He recalled how he felt the burden of safeguarding the freedoms of others. He felt privileged to carry his portion of that burden. I was and still am amazed at the level of selflessness he and his fellow servicemen and servicewomen demonstrated.
My father, grandfather-in-law, father-in-law, stepfather-in-law and uncle are veterans. They've established a legacy of selfless service for our family for generations to come. "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." John 15:13.
From Karla Porter:
I'm grateful for the qualities that lead individuals to work and sacrifice for the greater good of their country. I'm thankful to those who served when it wasn't their choice and to those who do so voluntarily. I'm hopeful that as a nation we will continue to develop programs for their return that will be as dignified as their Service.
From Steve Boese:
Thanks to all the brave men and women who have served, continue to serve, and their families that also make incredible sacrifices to protect and ensure our freedoms. Thanks especially to my Dad, Capt. Fred Boese - US Army (Ret.), Vietnam veteran and my hero.
From Tammy Colson:
Thank you to all the members of the armed forces who have shown courage, honor and commitment to a job that few volunteer for and fewer understand. To my fellow Marines, Semper Fidelis - to those who came before, and those who give the greatest sacrifice now. I honor your memory, past and present.
And finally from China Gorman:
My gratitude to our veterans is unspeakable. I live the life I have because of the sacrifices, commitments and actions of the men and women of the United States military. I drove by the Arlington cemetary just yesterday and said a special prayer of thanks for the ultimate sacrifice our incredible warriors have made so that I can live in the land of the free and home of the brave.
We appreciate everyone who chose to participate and express their gratitude. Enjoy your Thanksgiving!
giving thanks, thank you, veterans day in Events
