Session 8: Recognition Strategy for Thriving Workplaces
Presenter: Dr. James Chitwood
Session Description: Are your employees feeling truly seen and valued? Recognition isn’t just a feel-good perk—it’s a strategic driver of retention, engagement, and performance. This month's presentation is packed with practical, research-backed insights to help organizations move beyond token gestures and build a culture of genuine appreciation.
Key Highlights:
• Structure over spontaneity: Create intentional, equitable recognition plans tied to job roles and calendars.
• More than money: While compensation matters, clear growth paths and role diversification can be even more motivating.
• Recognize the person, not just the output: Align recognition with individual motivations and hidden talents.
• Beyond top performers: Celebrate consistent contributors, team wins, and peer-nominated efforts.
• Smart strategies, real ROI: Reduce costly turnover and increase productivity with measurable recognition practices.
Whether you're an HR leader, team manager, or executive, this guide helps you turn appreciation into action.
Build a workplace where great people stay—and thrive.
