“People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care." – Theodore Roosevelt

This class goes beyond conventional notions of gratitude and saying ‘thank you’. We will explore how genuine appreciation differs from superficial recognition, as well as its profound impact on motivation, retention, and job satisfaction. In addition, you will learn about the power of peer-to peer recognition, which research reveals to be 35.7% more likely to impact financial results than manager-only recognition. The research is clear: appreciation is a distinct advantage in today’s competitive, hybrid workplace. Plus, it’s fun!

Attendees will:

  • Discuss the hierarchy of employee needs emphasizing the significance of feeling respected, appreciated, and connected within the organization

  • Learn about “languages of appreciation” (Champman and White) and how they can help you effectively communicate appreciation at work in a way that matters to the recipient

  • Explore meaningful gestures, such as handwritten notes, public recognition, and unexpected tokens to create a lasting impact on employee morale

  • Review diverse scenarios where recognition can be applied, from setting standards of work and reaching milestones to acknowledging adaptability and reflecting company values

  • Examine how to use employee recognition through each stage of the employee journey
