Loyalty Building Strategies for Managers
Loyalty Building Strategies for Managers
According to a recent survey by salary.com the top three reasons people leave are compensation, advancement, and lack of recognition. If you supervise, you may not have control of the first two but you absolutely have control over recognition. Why not sprinkle a little recognition into your workday?
1) Help your team plan a fun event to show your appreciation for all their hard work and build a little team spirit. People who have appreciative bosses and enjoy their coworkers stick around far longer.
2) Celebrate a great customer satisfaction score. Bring in ice cream and toppings on Friday afternoon. Give a prize for the most creatively decorated sundae.
3) Send a card to each of your team members' families telling them why you are glad to have their family member on your team.
Yes, the last one will take some time to complete. Recognition, meaningful recognition, does take time. In return you build a more loyal workforce that pays you back many times over.
