Description

Survey results from the Workforce Institute indicate that 87% of employees report a high level of inclusion at their company when there’s a strong culture of recognition.1 Of those surveyed, nearly one-quarter said that they’re not recognized frequently enough. A Gallup report found that, when recognized, employees are five times more likely to feel connected to their company’s culture and four times as likely to be engaged. A recent Achievers survey revealed that 48% of leaders said their culture has deteriorated since the start of the pandemic because of lack of employee input and their failure to connect with remote employees.

When times get tough, recognition programs are needed to increase output, achieve better results, and drive employee engagement and satisfaction. To ensure inclusivity, sustained productivity, and to drive a positive workplace culture, organizations should double down on their recognition efforts and be mindful of increasing interaction with employees working in alternate locations.2 While billions of dollars are spent annually on these programs, it is often difficult to find studies that show the value of these investments.

Chester Elton, the “Apostle of Appreciation” teams up with Jack Phillips, creator of the ROI Methodology®, the most used evaluation system in the world, to bring you an insightful webinar that will teach you why recognition is needed, how it should be provided, and why and how to measure the success of motivation programs at the impact and ROI levels. During this session, you’ll see research that shows how a few vital leadership skills—when done right—can boost employee engagement and reduce turnover. You’ll also learn the fascinating science behind why so many managers resist (aka: suck at) something so seemingly simple as gratitude. Even more important, you’ll learn how to demonstrate the value of these investments.

Objectives
After attending this session, participants should be able to:
  • Identify how employee appreciation enhances motivation and productivity
  • Identify the five levels of outcomes
  • Explain the need to deliver impact and ROI for selected recognition programs
  • Use the eight most powerful gratitude practices to enhance team performance and trust
  • Design recognition programs to deliver results using design thinking principles

Materials
Participants in this interactive session will receive a copy of the presentation, job aids, reference material, and a case study.
