It is an undeniable fact that appreciation is something that we all expect no matter what are position is. Whether you are a son, a father, a friend or a relative who has done something good, you would want the other person to appreciate you or show gratitude to you because this is how the world works. You say “thank you” to people when they do something for you, you appreciate them with gifts and good words when you know that they struggled hard for something. In short, this world is all about give and take, you help someone, you get appreciated and when you appreciate someone who get more love and more dedication from them. So, it’s just like a continuous circle that is never ending.
It’s just like a rule and way how the world works. Now, for a while apply the same rule to your workplace. If you are a manager or a boss to a number of employees then you need to know the true value of appreciation. You have to make sure that you are leaving no stone unturned when it comes to appreciating and motivating your workers and your team members for the efforts they put for the development of your business.
You see, the success of a business is mostly based on the hard work of the team and the employees or in other words, good employees are the backbone of a good and successful company and if you have to make sure that your company is doing good then you have to treat the backbone in the right way and keep it motivated.
Now you might be wondering how exactly can you keep your employees motivated and happy. Well, there are three things that you can do for them;
- Put them under the spotlight and give them recognition
- Practice and give corporate gifts every now and then
- Give your employee the gift of respect and appreciation
These three things are going to make the backbone of your company stronger with the passage of time.
Now, here are a few reasons why employee appreciation is important at workplace;
1- It makes the employees feel human
Often we ourselves have complained about how our boss treated us when we used to work as employees. We remember how every day was a whole another struggle to go to the office and stand in front of the boss. In simpler words, most of the people used to hate their jobs but this isn’t how a company should work. A company should give the respect and the appreciation that every employee deserves because that is the best way to make them feel human. Appreciating one another in the workplace should be a practice every where in the world because again, you need to give the due respect to your team members so that they can work even harder.
2- It improves the company culture
You don’t want people running from your company or you don’t want your employees to hate the fact that they have to come to your office. This is something no boss or manager would ever want but again at the end of the day you have to make some struggle from your end too in order to improve and create a good workplace environment. Your company should work on humanity, trust and happiness first and your first priority should be the satisfaction and happiness of your employees because only then you will be able to see and attract satisfied customers towards your company.
These are the two main reasons why you need to practice appreciation and gratitude in your workplace. Again, it’s all about give and take, you appreciate and respect your employees for how hard they are working and ultimately they will work even harder for you and they will do all they can to make your company touch the heights of success.
