Building a Recognition Culture for the Fast Lane

We have all experienced the positive impact of recognition in our lives. In athletics, a word of praise from our coach vaulted us to higher levels of performance, and the pursuit of a diploma made us bury our heads in our textbooks. But often in the workplace, recognition is overlooked as schedules become increasingly busier.

Working in a culture that does not support recognition can lead to burnout, decreased performance, de-motivation and even reduced profitability. In this seminar you'll learn strategies for aligning your employee recognition initiative with corporate objectives and you'll get a step-by-step guide for implementing a strategic employee recognition program.

Learning Outcomes:

• Identify the latest research that supports the business case for employee recognition.
• Develop a recognition program to achieve a positive ROI and align with corporate objectives.
• Identify a step-by-step approach to planning and implementing an effective recognition program.
• Develop a communication plan.
