Having Recognition program box checked certainly is good for management and it shows that management recognizes the importance of this area for driving employee engagements.\u00c2\u00a0 However now that the box is checked we recommend it is time to really access the current state of the program.<\/p>\n
It starts with the management team. Most managers going through the routine to Nominate and recognize an employee is not so fun especially if the program is manually based.\u00c2\u00a0 \u00c2\u00a0Another to do item on their already busy slate.<\/p>\n
We talk to a lot of managers who work hard at assembling nomination criteria and also organizing notes for the monthly employee recognition meeting \u2013 basically getting ready to pitch their nominee to the great management team.\u00c2\u00a0 This a \u2013 z process can take time.<\/p>\n
And then there is the result from management\u2019s recommendations.\u00c2\u00a0 In some cases \u2018well meaning\u201d employee engagement programs can actually have a reverse effect since the decision tree is based on a data that may not present for the entire \u201cpicture\u201d of the employee environment.<\/p>\n
So there are two considerations around that check box program that relate to time and outcome.\u00c2\u00a0 Outcome being the most important metric \u2013 not be suggest time is not important.<\/p>\n
Time \u2013 what are the opportunity costs for the company having\u00c2\u00a0management\u00c2\u00a0involved\u00c2\u00a0in the manual research of data to support a selection of employees?\u00c2\u00a0 There are only so many hours in the week and even two hours per month allocated to employee Recognition activities can translate to hundreds\u00c2\u00a0of\u00c2\u00a0 productivity hours.<\/p>\n
And the outcome.\u00c2\u00a0 We have surveyed hundreds of employees and the most common question we get is \u201chow can I ever win Recognition?\u201d\u00c2\u00a0 \u00c2\u00a0 Employees that have been nominated and never win are the ones that are most at risk for the \u201cnegative effect\u201d of employee Recognition programs.<\/p>\n
So when the box is checked we need to understand the general impact of our checked box and if we are implementing the programs that make the management and servicing of employee recognition programs a win for everyone (including the stock holders!).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
