Positive reinforcements that work.
1. Name a day in someone's honor.
You can play this up as much as you want to. Ideas include a recognition meeting with staff, a meal or cake, a gift presentation, a certificate presentation, even a testimonial by an internal or external customer of the employee's exceptional value laden work.
2. Give away small items.
Movie tickets, cookies, pens, key chains....
3. Write a personal thank-you letter.
Small thank-yous start on sticky notes and large efforts arrive on store-bought cards.
4. Give some of you, take the employee out to lunch.
5. Acknowledge them in a staff meeting.
6. Give them extra time off.
We all like getting off early the last work day of the week.
7. Give a car wash certificate.
8. Start a column in your newsletter for employee recognition.
9. Tell the employees' clients about the recognition.
10. Invite the significant other to the recognition.
