The Omnia Insights #31
🙌 Gratitude, Career Development, and Motivating Employees
We hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. As we reflect on the season, let’s talk about how gratitude and career development can be the driving forces for building a motivated workforce.
What are you doing to keep your employees motivated? Competitive salaries, perks, and stock options matter, and can provide traction in the short run. But your employees are also looking for work-life balance, learning and development opportunities, career advancement, and work fulfillment.
These intangible needs differ from employee to employee and need special attention from managers. When choosing the best ways to recognize your employees, it helps to know their personalities, interests, and current life events so you can use that information to personalize recognition and rewards.
In this issue, we share eight modern ways to say thank you for a job well done, a critical element in motivating employees. We also show you how to develop your individual contributors and keep them engaged without taking the traditional route to management. Finally, we would love for you to join us for our First Friday Fundamentals training webinar next month as we recap the talent trends and challenges of 2022 to prepare for 2023.
We are incredibly grateful for our clients; we wish you a successful end to the year and a joyous holiday season.
See you next month!
