SPECIAL GUEST: Debra Corey
Showing appreciation through recognition has been proven to be one of the most effective tools a manager has. From driving stronger business results (9 times more likely with recognition) to improving morale (70% of employees said their motivation and morale would improve if managers would simply thank them) to improving relationships with their manager (58% of employees said their relationship with their manager would improve if given more recognition), studies have found the impact and difference it can make.
However, with 65% of employees saying that they don’t feel appreciated, and 75% of employees who quit their job citing a lack of recognition as the key driver, clearly something’s not working.
Debra Corey’s new book, See it. Say it. Appreciate it! is a powerful call to action for managers who want to get it right. It will help you understand the power of appreciation, giving them the skills to See it – look for recognition moments everywhere and anywhere – Say it – take action and make it happen – and Appreciate it! – deliver the ultimate appreciation feeling!
Packed with practical tips, tools and inspirational examples being used by companies around the world, this book will help you add the exclamation point to appreciation that’s fit for your people and the future!
