“Senior management at my company expects all managers to recognize employees for their efforts. A system was put in place at my company to make recognition easy for managers, allowing them to select
gifts from a Web-based system. My manager has approached me
numerous times to make sure I am recognizing my direct and indirect
reports for performing above and beyond.”
“My manager is excellent about recognizing individuals and teams for
contributions on a regular basis; however, there is very little if any way
to monetarily compensate for going above and beyond.”
“Sometimes not only is personal recognition a good thing, teamwork
recognition has a multiplier effect in leaders of teams.”
“It is not the reward (money, time, or attention), it’s the real interest
in what my company (as part of a bigger group of companies) is doing
and what my colleagues are doing with what result.”
“Public recognition and thank-yous should be given to the team I am
responsible for—they helped cause the success.
