When it comes to appreciation moments that really wow, the human touch is everything. Here are a few ideas to get your appreciation juices surging. Borrow, pilfer, modify, or invent your own. The point is to appreciate. Our way, your way, any way.
There's something about an all expense paid trip to a training seminar that says to the team member, "Your talent is worth investing in." Their sense of value is boosted before they've even set foot on the plane.
Send an email announcing a spontaneous Slurpee run. Or donut run. Or (insert your treat of choice) run. The point is to orchestrate random acts of bonding. Because after all, the team that appreciates together is the team that achieves together.
Create a special hand signal that represents kudos. Create a special jiggity-jig that rejoices in accomplishment. Create a special slogan that rallies the troops. Whatever you do, create team traditions for celebrating great work.
