Everyone Needs a Pat on the Back, Even Companies

/in /by

Everyone likes a pat on the back occasionally, some more than others.

Experts agree that recognition and appreciations is an important part of the human DNA. Recognition inspires and fosters a positive work environment, minimizes turnover and maximizes customer satisfaction.

But why do many companies, who are made up of people, not display the collective need for recognition. So many companies are doing extraordinary things in so many areas, but do not feel the need to seek recognition and validation for their employees.

Perhaps companies have trimmed their staff so much they do not have the time to pursue recognition, however not doing so is very short-sighted.

Seeking industry recognition is actually inexpensive, not that time consuming and can paybig dividends. Industry recognition can drive your public image, increase brand awareness, validate your product or service, generate employee pride and drive revenue. Why would a company not want to do it?
