A welcome message is a sure-fire way to make your employees feel valued and appreciated starting on their first day.

Expressing gratitude to employees is not just a nicety and display of good manners in the modern workplace.

Employee recognition messages and shows of appreciation make all the difference when it comes to creating a supportive, empowering work environment. Words are a powerful tool to motivate and inspire anyone – be it an employee, coworker, friend or family member.

Inspirus’ own Senior Director of the Strategic Realization Office, Sue Severns, was recently featured on the PMI Dallas website as a featured author.

Gone are the days when an annual pizza party was considered enough to recognize and appreciate employees. As the workforce evolves, so do employee expectations.

There are two ways to approach an employee’s first day on the job. You could look at it as a checklist of orientation activities.

There is no question about how important onboarding is for an employee’s journey and, ultimately, a company’s bottom line.

The desire to be recognized and acknowledged is ingrained in all of us – it’s human nature to want to be appreciated.

Words are powerful, and a well-crafted letter of recognition thanking an employee for their contributions can be a game-changer.

Sometimes, there is nothing better than a few words of praise and appreciation. A genuine employee recognition message can make a world of difference for a team member.

Those first few days or weeks on a job are critical for laying the foundation for a long and fruitful relationship.

When an employee joins your organization, they’re virtually a blank slate. They represent an opportunity to mold them into a highly engaged, productive, and loyal members of your team.

Some organizations recognize team members when they reach five or ten-year service milestones, others reward star sales performers, and still others celebrate retirements for valued employees. But few companies have all their bases covered simultaneously, or let alone know what all the bases are, to cover them! The good news is that leaders and managers know that rewards and recognition programs increase employee engagement, which boosts a variety of outcomes including business performance and employee satisfaction.

With disengagement levels high and burn out on the rise, the time has come for employers to re-energize their staff with meaningful employee engagement quotes.

Communication makes the world go around and that’s especially true in work environments. Employees need to understand what’s expected of them, how what they do helps drive organizational results and goal attainment, what they’re doing well, how they can improve, and how to work effectively with colleagues to get things done.
