Appreciative leaders are often appreciated, leaders. Not only is staff appreciation a friendly recognition of exceptional work, but can reinforce a positive and inclusive environment within your workplace. This can vary from branded merchandise, awards, and recognition, or simply creating space to allow an open and honest dialogue in the workplace.
