Get hooked on recognition!


As a Performance Management Consultant for over 10 years, I often hear about
the challenges of implementing effective employee recognition programs to address
multiple objectives: How can managers use recognition programs and/or practices
to engage, motivate, and retain staff? How can these programs accelerate staff
performance while building employee loyalty?”

A recent study by the Society for Human Resource Management revealed that
79 % of the people who leave their jobs attribute their departure to a lack of
appreciation
. 39% of the bottom-line performance is tied to employee satisfaction,
according to a study by the Wilson Learning Corporation.

The role that recognition plays in performance management has become increasingly
important in recent years. It is a challenge that does not go away with turnover,
reorganizations or pay increases.

Recognition is the reinforcement of behaviors, activities and results you
want to see happen again. Positive reinforcement has proven to increase
potential, improve relationships, stregthen loyalty, and encourage employees to
go above and beyond what's required of them.

ThankTank nets the potential in your employees. The ThankTank Workshop motivates,
educates and inspires supervisors and managers to utilize employee recognition in a
whole new way.


Our goal is simply to get you hooked.
