While instincts say that any form of positive feedback does wonders for employee morale and, therefore, productivity , empirical research points to a different truth. Offering meaningful words of encouragement for employees is as much an art as it is a science. It seems not all forms of positive feedback are created equal: while words of encouragement for employees do have the potential to energize, inspire, and motivate , the wrong kind of praise can do more harm than good.

What is employee engagement? Employee engagement is the emotional commitment an employee has to their work, their team’s goals, and their company’s mission. Engagement can be the difference between an employee who just does enough to get by and an employee who always goes the extra mile. It’s the source of many important workplace benefits, as we’ll see shortly.

When an employer hires, he is not just adding a new member to the organization, he is also forming an employee and employer link. Employers and employees who successfully grow a steady relationship are more likely to be happy and loyal to each other. The degree of closeness in these relationships depends on both the employer and the employee. When some employers choose to follow the line of hierarchy, others opt to create a friendly bond.

That’s the case for any employee benefit, from time off to healthcare to flexible work arrangements to workers’ comp insurance. Naturally, most businesses can’t afford the king suite of benefits—unlimited PTO, free insurance, etc.

Competency models allow management and HR to identify gaps in employee skill sets, align employee behavior with corporate goals, and determine whether an employee is ready for a promotion. What are Competency Models? A competency model is a collection of behaviors employees must possess to be successful in their role or at a specific task. Competency models are more nuanced than job descriptions, as they provide an understanding not only of what the employee does but how he or she does it.
