It’s widely accepted — yet not widely practiced — that employee engagement is a major factor when determining a business’ success. Yet despite this area of opportunity, its implementation appears to be cripplingly low. In fact, a 2015 Gallup study indicates that only 32% of employees feel engaged at their jobs. MORE
We understand that good employees deserve recognition, but the nuance of the reward is what really drives its impact. Think of it this way: how many times have you received a $25.00 gift card as a birthday or Christmas gift? Sure, it could come in handy, but this also sends a message. Essentially, the giver is saying – albeit subconsciously – that they don’t feel like putting some thought and effort into the present. MORE
Work-life balance is defined as striking the right balance between work- life and personal-life. It is a daily effort made to devote the right amount of time to work and family. It is the balance that lets a person enjoy achievements made throughout the day. This balance varies from person to person. It depends upon various factors like the type and amount of work a person is doing, whether married, unmarried, student, a parent and much more. Is there any specific definition of work-life balance? MORE
As managers, we hopefully value the happiness of our workers, lest they show dissent or discourage their peers from working at the company. After all, negativity spreads like the flu. Fortunately, it’s easy to meet people’s needs and keep them happy by simply having a certain dynamic, specific working conditions, hours and activities – to name a few. Engagement is radically different and significantly more complex. MORE
In the present scenario, companies are focusing more and more on recognizing their employees to increase employee engagement & satisfaction. In this process, the senior HR Department of the company plays a very vital role. The manager is the person on whose shoulders this responsibility lies. A manager has to be in regular touch with all the employees and keep a proper track of the employee’s progress. MORE
Working toward company success is a complex and ever-changing process. Without proper motivation to help organizational growth, employees will become complacent and their behavior stagnant. Staff will solely be interested in coming to work, getting their checks and leaving on time – no more, but potentially less. MORE
Employee recognition and its relationship to engagement isn’t as direct as we think. Conventional wisdom would make us think that if we give our employees a pat on the back and toss them a prize or two, they’ll be engaged, happy and productive. But that doesn’t explain why, according to a 2012 publication by Bersin & Associates, “Nearly 75% of organizations have a recognition program,” while multiple studies show overall engagement sitting at around 31%. MORE
We’ve all heard the old adage, “money makes the world go ’round,” but that doesn’t mean it makes the world spin faster. Yes, currency is a driving force in the global economy, that much is clear. After all, it affects everything from individual stability to international competition. The problem is that many employers – in a sincere effort to reward employees – apply this grand concept about money being the be-all end-all on a micro scale. MORE
An aging population has brought a lot of changes in virtually every area of society, and the workplace is no exception. When it comes to feedback and recognition, Millennials have needs that are radically different from previous generations, seeking more frequent acknowledgment. To Millennials, a desirable position isn’t about security the way it was to their forefathers. MORE
Having engaged & interested employees in an office don’t only bring positivity in the office but also helps a company to grow. It is a dream of every entrepreneur to have a dedicated & engaged team in the office. The U.S study of Gallup for the year 2015 has shown that majority i.e. 50.8% were “not engaged” while another 17.2% were “actively disengaged”. These stats are really disturbing & we are sure that nobody wants to have disengaged employees. MORE
Schedule, workload, environment, salary, culture, values, management – these all affect employee satisfaction in one capacity or another. Although there’s no such thing as the “perfect job” (or the perfect employer, for that matter), odds are that high turnover means there’s an issue in one or more of these areas. MORE
It’s no secret that employees want to be recognized for their hard work. Whenever a new hire joins your ranks, they carry with them vast potential, which they’re eager to show. But even the most devoted employee won’t want to carry on if he or she feels that their contributions are going unnoticed. Everybody — no matter how altruistic they may be — will eventually feel used. MORE

We all are very familiar with the importance of motivation at work-place for employees. For motivating the employees, almost all the organizations grapple with the kind of rewards to be offered.

The fact that top performers deserve to be rewarded in some form isn’t just a matter of common decency, but common sense. A simple “thank you” – given immediately after an achievement – is more effective than money or products. Meghan M. Biro of Forbes describes it as “reflexive praise for doing the right thing.” MORE
