When employees receive recognition, they are 73 percent less likely to feel burned out. However, 81 percent of leaders say employee recognition isn’t a priority for their company.
Additionally, research from SHRM found that for 70 percent of people, recognition at work makes them happier at home.
The U.S. and Canada celebrate National Employee Appreciation Day each March. No matter your location, you can take this opportunity to do something a little special for your staff to let them know you see them and value them. It’s also a good reminder to make sure employee recognition is built into your ongoing work plan throughout the year.

Q: When I hear reference to DiSC “cornerstone principles,” what does that mean?
A: Each Everything DiSC® profile has a short list of cornerstone principles that orient the learner to the core assumptions of the tool. For example, Everything DiSC Workplace® tells us that “All of the DiSC styles are equally valuable and everyone is a blend of all four styles.” Or, for Everything DiSC® Productive Conflict, “Your response to conflict situations is in your own control. You cannot control how others respond to conflict.” For Everything DiSC® Agile EQ™, “Your EQ is not fixed,” and “There are different ways to be emotionally intelligent.”
Reviewing cornerstone principles is a great way to start when debriefing DiSC assessment results or proposing a DiSC program to your company’s decision-makers. Read the DiSC cornerstone principles here »
