Create a Culture of Appreciation in Your Organization

If recognition is supposed to be positive, why do we often get embarrassed or self-conscious when being praised by others? Why, when being recognized, do we often questions others’ intentions (What do they really want from me?).  Why is it when people praise us, we often tend to focus on the things we didn’t do, leaving us feeling like what we do is never enough?

Explore these questions and more in an interactive and often hilarious look at a hidden side of recognition. See how common—yet easily avoidable—practices and misconceptions around the recognition process often unintentionally sabotage engagement efforts, break down communication, and lead us to burnout.  Give your managers concrete tools that make authentic recognition easy and comfortable.
