Friday 3 March is Employee Appreciation Day, and an opportunity to remind your colleagues just how much you value them and recognise all they do.
If you haven’t already lined something up to mark Employee Appreciation Day, it’s never too late to plan! Dedicating time to celebrate your colleagues is great way to connect.
Here are three effective ways you can share the love and show up for your colleagues:
Harness the power of words. A few carefully crafted words can go a long way when it comes to showing employee appreciation. Create an email or video message to thank them, and highlight some of the great things you’ve achieved together so far this year.
Do some team bonding. At Eximia, we get together once a month for a ‘reflections’ session. It’s an opportunity to share good news, reflect on what’s working well, and remind ourselves that we’re on a journey together. Set your own session up and ask everyone to come along armed with one good thing to share, and a thank you for those who helped achieve it.
Finish up early! One of the simplest ways to show employee appreciation is to let people leave early. Time off is precious – especially in today’s busy world – and is repaid when people feel rested, happier and healthier.
