We’ve all been there. A well-intentioned initiative that started off with a bang has begun to fizzle like fireworks from the 4th or melt like ice cream in this July heatwave! Or maybe you have an employee recognition program that is feeling too "vanilla" and suffering from a lack of resources, focus or accountability. Over time, programs to recognize the contributions of your team members often lose steam and fade away, and even comprehensive programs can fail to achieve set goals. There is a way to ensure that your employee recognition efforts can stand the test of time AND achieve your engagement and retention goals. If you want to scoop your program up and really add that 'whipped cream and cherry on top' of your caregiver recognition efforts, we’d love to share how we can help your organization generate more meaningful recognition—and help you achieve operational excellence. Schedule a time to strategize with us and learn how Ceca can be your partner in caregiver recognition: https://lnkd.in/dfBx3YQg
