The Power of Recognition – More Important Than Rewards?
This episode dives into the concept of “Recognition” as the Second Engagement Factor. Host Saarrah reminisces while enjoying a fruity Oasis Tropical drink, which reminds her of her childhood in France.
The discussion explores how recognition, even more than rewards, can be a game-changer for employee motivation. It covers:
- Public vs. Private Recognition: When to compliment publicly and offer private feedback.
- Constructive Criticism: How to guide and offer solutions when giving feedback.
- Authenticity and Specificity: The importance of genuine and specific recognition.
- Understanding Your Team: Recognising individual preferences for public or private recognition (think “Love Languages” at work!).
- Making Time Matters: Highlighting the power of a leader simply spending time with their team members.
- To Lead People Walk Behind Them: Director and host Nick talks about working with Jack Bendat and Andrew Forrest and says there is nothing better a leader can do than make time for people on their team.
