You probably realize how powerful your words can be when you’re praising someone for a job well done.
By recognizing that person at just the right time with just the right words, you can impact that person – and your company – in a highly valuable way, say researchers.
Since a compliment’s free to give out and does much for morale and more, it pays to show your team much love. According to a new report from employee engagement firm TINYpulse, employees who receive continuous feedback believe that:
· Their company is 11% better at taking action on their feedback
· They feel 11% more valued at work
· Their work environment is 12% better
· They are 9% more likely to refer someone to work for their company
