While the business landscape is constantly evolving, one thing that will always remain the same is the power of showing appreciation to your employees.
Recognising their hard work and demonstrating gratitude goes a long way towards helping to retain your staff and reinforcing their loyalty to your company. As such, this should be one of your top priorities as a business leader.
So, what’s the best way to show your appreciation for their efforts and ensure your employees feel valued?
Let’s find out.
Why is it important to show gratitude to your employees?
Most companies will typically show appreciation to their employees at the end-of-year party, or to a particular staff member when they retire or leave the company. However, this is no longer enough.
Recognising your employees needs to be part of your organisation’s culture. Not only does this help foster a healthy working environment and better relationships within your team, but it also increases engagement and motivation amongst your staff as well.
Feeling appreciated also improves staff wellbeing and promotes confidence, encouraging more effective collaboration within your organisation.
Finally, fostering staff loyalty and retaining talent will save your company time, money and precious resources – both now and into the future.
Showing gratitude to your employees is a simple act that can make a significant difference in both the lives of your staff, as well as the success of your company.
These gestures of appreciation don’t have to be grand or overcomplicated, however.
Here are some simple things you can do to show thanks to your team or individual employees:
This can be done through one-on-one meetings, team forums, or even using surveys. Solutions such as VibeCatch’s QWL Polls, Pulse Polls and 360 Feedback Polls can facilitate this collection of employee insights and help you to gain a better understanding of your team at the same time.
