Providing meaningful staff recognition doesn’t require managers and supervisors to spend buckets of money.

There are low-cost staff recognition tools and techniques that you can use to provide high-value recognition to your staff and co-workers. Low-cost staff recognition are those simple, informal gestures that let your staff know you value them for who they are, and appreciate them for what they contribute and what they achieve, individually and as part of a team.

Formal staff recognition events and programs can be expensive, cumbersome and time consuming. Low-cost staff recognition is about using resources wisely—your time, your money and your effort.

The benefit of your providing positive feedback regularly can be demonstrated. Deserving staff members who hear positive feedback regularly feel good about where they work and what they do. Morale is high. Staff members are more engaged, more committed and more productive than those people who work in environments characterized by negative feedback or no feedback at all.

When you build a culture of recognition, you create a work environment where people want to be. Turnover rates are lower than in similar workplaces where staff recognition is scarce.

In Thanks! GREAT Job! Improve Retention, Boost Morale and Increase Engagement with High- Value, Low-Cost Staff Recognition, he identifies the five ingredients of meaningful staff recognition.

 

Thanks Great Job Nelson ScottNelson is going to give you practical tips on how to provide GREAT staff recognition so that you:

  • Provide GREAT service to your clients
  • Recruit GREAT staff
  • Retain GREAT staff
  • Have a GREAT day at work

High-value, low-cost staff recognition tips

Posted on May 15, 2014 by Jean Eaton in Blog

Nelson Scott is a speaker, consultant and author. In Thanks! GREAT Job! Improve Retention, Boost Morale and Increase Engagement with High- Value, Low-Cost Staff Recognition, he identifies the five ingredients of meaningful staff recognition, which must be Genuine and should be Relevant, Explicit, Appropriate and Timely.  In our Practice Management Nugget interview, Nelson shared some additional nuggets that you can use right away.

What is Nelson’s #1 Tip to recognize staff? Be sincere and genuine.
GREAT_Job_Nelson_Scott

Be sincere and genuine in the way that we provide recognition – and provide frequent recognition or praise for doing good work. Make recognition a daily habit.

What is staff recognition?

Staff recognition is not awards, incentives or team building. Staff recognition is “Recognition is an after-the-fact display of appreciation or acknowledgment of an individual's or team's desired behavior, effort, or business result that supports the organization's goals and values.” (Source: Recognition Professionals International (www.recognition.org). Staff recognition happens spontaneously – when we observe someone doing something that we want to reinforce.

Who’s job is responsible for staff recognition?

Staff recognition can come from managers but when a colleague recognizes good work it is often more meaningful. Recognition can also come from clients, customers, and visitors. Empower yourself to recognize good work and good attitude of your co-workers even if it is not in your job description.

Nelson suggests that we make the third Tuesday of each month as “Peer Recognition Day.” There are many ways to provide staff recognition – variety is the spice of staff recognition. Thank you notes are an important and useful tool – but don’t limit your recognition to only thank you notes. Nelson provides a wide variety of tools and suggestions that you can review to find an approach that fits well in your organization, your culture, your personal ‘style’ and is meaningful to the recipient.

Recognition focuses on what the person has done and how it is relevant to our business goals. It takes practice to get really good at this and make staff recognition a daily habit. Let Nelson help you with resources that you can use right away!
