Creating a Culture of Recognition
with Dr. Bob Nelson
Build Recognition into the Strategies, Programs and Behaviors of the Organization, Transform Your Workplace, Become an Employer of Choice (1-3 hours)
Session Description:
The number one reason why managers don’t use recognition is because they report, “they don’t know how.” Dr. Bob Nelson closes this gap and shows you how to create a culture of recognition. Far from being a “fuzzy notion,” Dr. Nelson shows how recognition represents the single most validated principle for driving desired behavior and performance in today’s work environments. Compared to the average company, employees in a recognition-focused company are 5 times more likely to feel valued, 11 times more likely to feel completely satisfied, 7 times more likely to stay, and 6 times more likely to invest in the company. This talk will expand your thinking of what recognition really means and what you can do to build it into your culture. Dr. Nelson will help your organization create an exciting, positive work environment that produces more focused, competitive employees that better serve the strategies of the firm. When you invest in educating your managers about the power of recognition and how best to harness that power, you are investing in your company’s greatest asset: its people.
