Recognizing your teams’ contribution would help your business strengthen the relationship and increase the levels of loyalty and productivity.

Although there are different of rewards, including intrinsic and extrinsic, individuals do appreciate their managers taking notice and recognizing them for accomplishing a task successfully. It is in our nature to have the basic need to feel valued and appreciated. Many companies have recently invested efforts into implementing employee recognition programs that have proved to be effective for employees’ commitment and involvement.

The monetary aspect could be a key differentiator between an informal intrinsic recognition and a formal extrinsic reward. A promotional product, with company’s logo and branding, could prove to be an effective item to be used when recognizing your employees. Coffee mugs, pens, golf balls, mouse pads, and more are all a great way to stay top of mind while reminding your teams of how much you appreciate their hard work.

Employees can be recognized through public forums, annual dinners, monthly newsletters, weekly staff meetings, or even daily announcements. Regardless of the model you select, make sure that you are transparent in your approach and clear on your process in order to create a positive work environment for your employees.
