Recognition isn't just about saying "thank you" – it's about creating meaningful connections that inspire and motivate our Tulane community. Here's how to make your recognition efforts truly count: ? WHEN: Be timely and spontaneous. Don't wait for scheduled reviews or monthly meetings. Research shows that day-to-day, informal recognition is most effective when tied to specific actions and accomplishments. ?? HOW: Make it specific and personal. Instead of "Great job on the project," try "Your innovative solution to streamline student registration improved efficiency and directly enhanced our students' experience – thank you for going the extra mile!" ?? WHY: Connect recognition to impact. Help employees see how their work contributes to Tulane's mission and core values (https://lnkd.in/gunVDSvG). Whether improving student services, supporting faculty, or enhancing our campus community, every contribution matters. Pro tip: During team meetings, create opportunities for peer recognition. Set aside time for colleagues to acknowledge each other's efforts and contributions. This will strengthen the sense of community and belonging.
