In reply to Ebrima. Even better have a KPI for providing recognition, most companies just don't value it enough to really benefit from it

Well articulated post. Many firms are still not given the right attention to staff recognition . This is a very key element of motivation and most cases does not cost a dime. Senior leaders should add this as part of their KPI.

In reply to Standard of Trust Group. i fully agree this should be a CEO role and in those companies where this has been done then they have been very successful.

We need the CEO to perform the role of CRO in order for recognition to be embedded in the organizational culture. If the CEO truly believes in recognizing the company’s people, then it will happen. Companies need each line-manager to recognize the team and individual contributors.

Doesn’t need to be an extra resource, it should be something the CEO does as part of his role, but sadly too often they don’t

In reply to Jim. I don't see this as a position, more a role that can be performed by anyone on the board and ideally it should be every board member

If people feel appreciated and recognised for their efforts, they will intern go that extra mile to do more, to be better and to improve. Even with the extra cost of a CRO, the productivity profits would be higher because your employees and doing more and better for no extra cost. Companies can trial a CRO for a year to see if there is any benefit to it.

And while we’re at it, a Chief Janitorial Officer, a Chief Facilities Office, a Chief Payroll officer, a Chief Sales Officer, a Chief Customer Officer, a Chief of the Chiefs Officer. Yep, I’m sure, we just need more CHIEF’ s, that will make all the difference.
