Most people work for more than just the money. They want to feel good about the job they do and how they are treated in their workplace. They want to be appreciated, which means more than a yearly acknowledgement at a staff day event or a card and a cake on their birthday. Neglected employees can become cynical and apathetic, and your better employees might leave, even when offered a raise.

Positive reinforcement is not the same as empty compliments. It’s a proven, three-step process – catch them, tell them, reinforce the good behavior – of focusing on an employee’s successes rather than their mistakes. It’s based on timely, sincere, and specific praise and gratitude and is the best method in the supervisor’s toolkit for improving productivity and workplace relationships.

Topics include how and when to use positive reinforcement, the better ratios for praise versus criticism, and when praise is not enough.
