Recognizing the effort and contributions of employees goes a long way toward an efficient and productive working environment. Many employers are surprised when they discover that the acknowledgement gained from the implementation of an employee appreciation program can be even more effective toward motivation than a raise. Recognition by Design creates excellence, by designing a strong foundation for organizations to build their positive working environments on. Their employee appreciation program, BRAVO is set in the core values which defines corporations, and their fundamental principles. This program is the basis for how employees approach their responsibilities, and the ideal performance and behavior that is expected from them and their company. The benefits of an appreciation program are numerous, and they all work toward improved operations for the present day, and lay the foundation for a better company tomorrow.

The Benefits of BRAVO

The Bravo approach begins by establishing an open forum where an organization's goals and expectations can be clearly stated and discussed. With these goals and expectations ...
... in mind the team at Recognition by Design will implement a program that boosts morale while adhering to the company’s core values, safety regulations and procedures. The program encourages employees to be proactive while increasing customer satisfaction. Other benefits include:

• Improved Employee Attitudes

• Increased Productivity

• Reduced Costs

• Bridges Communication and Relationships Between Employees and Managers/Supervisors

• Reduction in Time-Loss Accidents

• Lower Turnover

• Enhance/Introduce "Mentoring"

• An Increase in Knowledge and Belief in the Company Core Values

• Low Risk/Cost Implementation

The BRAVO program implements many tools for the employees and management to stay focused on responsibilities and values while producing a positive working environment. Some of these features include "on the spot" awards, weekly employee evaluation forms and an honors club, which employees are elected in to. Recognition by Design will create a mini-brochure of the company's core values to provide explanations and reinforcement for the staff. This program is designed to not only help management show appreciation for employees but to clearly define expectations, and create a healthy sense of competition to increase productivity.

BRAVO works with employees and supervisors. It provides monthly progress reports and offers training on "gestures." Gestures are an important aspect of showing recognition. The saying, "a pat on the back" can be taken quite literally when it comes to making an employee feel like their hard work and dedication is being noticed and taken into account. Gestures such as handshakes make staff feel respected and recognized.

The focus in the BRAVO program is not rewards based on actual work but displays of dedication to the company’s core and principle values. Awarding an employee based on their dedication, hard working nature, and for going above and beyond their role to achieve customer satisfaction breeds good qualities. These positive attributes are retained, and further work toward company growth, and a hard working environment.
