Performance Matters - Idea #15

Celebrate frequently and authentically.

Job satisfaction, loyalty, and performance has much to do with friendship, purpose and recognition. Celebration is evidence of all three.

How often do you celebrate with your team? How many ways do you know how to celebrate? Perhaps a chief celebration officer (CCO) is needed.

Celebration begins with something to celebrate... achievement, anniversary, opportunity, loyalty, or even just having "time to" celebrate. Celebration always acknowledges the something that is being celebrated in words written or spoken from the heart.

Celebration can be time spent together or time spent apart - try a celebration that allows employees unexpected time with family. Celebration is more about opportunities to bond than it is about money or time.

Celebration takes practice. Practice frequently. Celebration builds and defines community!
