Before I share with you my thoughts on how to get recognition right at your organization, let me share with you a quote by Stephen Covey. He says that “you have to water flowers if you want them to grow." What a great visual to introduce the topic of recognition, I can just picture my employees as lovely, thriving flowers, with my recognition programs being the water or nutrients which help them grow!

You might be asking yourself, why is recognition so important? Why do we need it, and just as important, why do we need to get it right? Continuing with my gardening analogy, without recognition our "flowers" (or employees) won’t get what they need to grow.

We all know that recognition is important, but how can we get it right? Learn how here.
