Appreciation is acknowledgement of a job well done. It can be expressed in many different ways, but when used effectively, appreciation changes everything. It awakens talent. Inspires creativity. And cultivates possibility.

Appreciation starts small. A note to say thanks for working late. Movie tickets for going the extra mile. And that appreciation can awaken something in your organization. When nourished, it grows into solutions that change the culture of your workplace and move the company forward.

Talent moves to where it is appreciated. In fact, 79% of those who quit their jobs cite lack of appreciation as a contributing factor.

But appreciation does more than keep people happy. It inspires people to go further, do more, create change. It transforms managers into leaders. And employees into champions.

Appreciation has a ripple effect, all the way down to your company’s fundamental goals and values. By appreciating people who embrace and move your vision forward, you strengthen your corporate brand. And when you’ve inspired growth in your people and in your brand, your bottom line grows too.

Appreciation starts with noticing great work. And then saying thanks. It really is that simple. And we’ll help you find the perfect way to do it. You can appreciate all the hard work they’ve put in. Their years of service to the company. A milestone achievement. Or the relationships they’ve fostered.

Not sure what your appreciation should be? It could be having everyone cut out early for a group movie on company time. Leaving sweet treats in their desk drawers, or creating a value-based recognition program where their actions lead to a selection of rewards. That’s the beauty of working with O.C. Tanner. Your appreciation program is never off the shelf. Whatever it takes to inspire a culture of engagement in your organization, we will create a solution that is uniquely yours.
