Description

Praising an employee for a great job sounds like a simple exercise, but not all managers get it right, and ineffective praise can do more harm than good.

Done properly, recognition is a great tool for boosting employee morale and for increasing workers engagement and productivity.

In this course you will learn exactly how to go about recognizing and showing your appreciation for a great job so that you engage, energize and help build employee confidence in their own abilities and greatness.

You will learn when to express your appreciation, how to tailor your recognition so it produces the greatest impact for each individual. You will be shown how to get the balance right, both in terms of frequency and when and if to acknowledge the team or just the individual.

It is also important of acknowledge the unsung heroes within your direct reports. This course will show you how to do this.

You will also learn what the common pitfalls are that you need to avoid to ensure your praise doesn’t backfire. This will ensure you don’t end up discouraging instead of encouraging.

How you go about delivering praise will determine its impact and effectiveness. This course guides you through the process to ensure you achieve the right outcomes.

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone in a leadership role, or aspiring to a leadership role. Supervisors, team leaders, managers, project managers, or anyone else who need to provide encouragement and express appreciation to direct reports.
  • PLEASE NOTE: the principles taught in this course are common practice in Australia, New Zealand, United States, and some other countries. Based on what country you work in, you may need to adapt some of the content to the common practices of that country.
