Employee recognition done right.

Got carrot-phobia? Do you think that recognizing your employees will distract you and your team from more serious business, create jealousy, or make you look soft? Think again.

The Daily Carrot Principle shows that the relationship between recognition and improved business results is highly predictable — it’s proven to work. But it’s not the employee recognition some of us have been using for years. It is recognition done right, recognition that affects people on a regular basis.

There is more to effective recognition than just gathering at annual luncheons to read names and hand out lapel pins. While service anniversary awards-when presented properly-play an important role in employee retention and engagement, it’s the day-to-day “carrots” that foster trust, respect, and long-term loyalty. This session explores ways managers can use formal and informal recognition to drive company initiatives and connect employees to core values. Tips on effective presentations are also shared.

Attendees will learn:

– how recognition plays a part in retention and engagement
– how to define and implement informal recognition
– the benefits of day-to-day recognition
– the difference between praising effort and rewarding results
– carrots over cash
– how to effectively present recognition

Can a manager be familiar and friendly with employees and still have their respect? Learn how carrots can bridge that gap. Bottom-line results and real-world case studies are presented.

Session presenter Scott Christopher is an award-winning speaker and humorist. Laughs, prize giveaways, and plenty of “a-ha” moments. An unforgettable experience.
