Recognition Strategies That Work

$18.95 Order now
Organizations spend an estimated 18 billion
dollars every year on recognition programs, yet the majority of employees feel
inadequately recognized. Why? Programs don’t focus on the most important
component of recognition – the manager!
This companion volume builds on the concepts
introduced in Make Their Day! Employee Recognition That Works.
Recognition Strategies That Work
guides managers through the process of developing a long-lasting recognition
habit that will help reduce turnover and increase employee engagement.
Both Make Their Day and Recognition Strategies can
be ordered direct from the author.
Managing Work Expectations is an
assessment tool that will help employees identify and communicate expectations
and will provide managers the opportunity to manage those expectations. A proven
tool for improving job satisfaction.
