I recently heard a leader say they "...show appreciation by ensuring their employees are paid each week, which is more than some companies do."

Sure, money is important, but it's not everything.

Being paid to do a job is an implied aspect of working. It's a byproduct of being employed.

Money, while necessary, doesn't contribute to much towards motivation or job satisfaction.

In fact, studies show that the more money a person is paid, the less financially motivated they are.

So, what does that mean?

It means your company culture and leadership style matter if you wish to get the best out of your employees.

Recognition is an important yet often overlooked tool for helping people feel valued, motivated, and part of a workplace.

Commitment to a cause (and every workplace has a cause) is rarely sustained via financial incentives.

Pay your employees what they're worth and show them that they're worth more than just what they're paid through appreciation, concern, and your behaviors.

$100k/year salary is an investment into a person in which you expect a nice ROI (usually 2-5x). Recognition costs you nothing, but it's ROI...well, that's everything.

Don't know how? I'd love to talk to you about it!
