Hey ladies , so far we have discussed ways to stay motivated, despite an overwhelming lack of appreciation that you may feel. Another important key to achieving this is to foster self-confidence , even when nobody else is giving you the encouragement you crave.
It’s also important that you do your part in building a workplace culture that prioritizes appreciation in your business
Here are a few ideas:
Make it a point to go out of your way to say something nice about your staff per day. It could be something as simple as saying, “I thought you did a really nice job on that decor. You should be proud.”
People like to feel needed. When asking someone for help, make sure you explain that you specifically sought them out because you know they’re good at creative design (or whatever the case may be).
If you’re working on a big project with a team of people, consider bringing in coffee, snacks, or lunch one day. A physical token of gratitude for hard work will lead to an instant boost in motivation.
Pay attention to the details. If you ask someone to send you some information on a specific client and they do so immediately upon returning to their office, thank them for being so speedy with the response. These little things rarely get noticed by others.
By making your workers feel appreciated in small ways, you can do your part of creating a new culture. You’ll notice that acts of appreciation become contagious. Before you know it, an entirely new culture could emerge, with motivation and happiness on the horizon.
