Employee Appreciation Day was celebrated on Friday March 5 this year. Although this was over a week ago, I firmly believe that any time is a good time to show appreciation to staff. You do not need a special day to acknowledge the contributions of your team, but it is nice to get a reminder to do so.

They say they feel tired, run down, and as if the work they do is going unnoticed or doesn’t make sense. Many times people may just need some time away from the office to recharge. Other times, the problem more than likely is because there is a lack of employee recognition where they work. Employee recognition is the acknowledgement of the contributions made by an employee to a project or to general achievement of the goals of the workplace. Take a minute to think. Have you acknowledged the efforts made by your team or colleagues? Do you want to recognize the work done by your team but don’t know where to start?
