Caring Committee Offers Recognition for Work & Life

It's WOW Wednesday! HR leaders, execs, and managers: How do you WOW the people who go above and beyond for you in your business? Or, how have you been WOWed?

Today's WOW Wednesday idea comes from Jaquilyn in Rogers, MN. She says:
"We have created a Caring Committee at work where we not only recognize those employees that deserve praise for work they have done, but this committee recognizes employees that are going through life changes (deaths in the family, divorce, new babies, etc). We send out cards and notes to them so that they know they are still being recognized through caring co-workers."

Informal Recognition: Little Acts of Appreciation Really Count

It's WOW Wednesday! HR leaders, execs, and managers: How do you WOW the people who go above and beyond for you in your business? Or, how have you been WOWed?

Today's WOW Wednesday idea comes from Cam.
"We have a well developed recognition program for anniversary levels of employees. We're working on a developing a more informal program. Busy people overlook giving kudos now and then. Just walking by and saying '"I appreciate you" makes a difference. We gave out Terryberry's Recognize Me! boxes to three supervisors for a test and we hope to do this across the company within the year!"
