(Transportation-News.com, September 20, 2012 ) GRAFTON, Wis. – U.S. Patent Services (recognizinginnovation.com), a renowned employee recognition company, has released strategies about patent wall projects that firms can use to help improve their employee recognition program.
The list contains tips, guidelines and things to avoid so firms can develop effective award and recognition programs.
The guide includes tips and tricks that focus on enhanced company productivity by rewarding employees for their achievements. U.S. Patent Services believes that through proper motivation and an effective award system, employees will become more involved in company activities that help boost the firm’s bottom line.
The company reveals several tips on improving recognition programs, including selecting people, giving out proper awards, and advice on why existing recognition programs are not effective.
Here are the top four reasons that stall an effective recognition program.
1. No active involvement by upper management: The main purpose of a recognition program should be exposure to upper management by the recipient.
2. Bad timing: Recognition should be at a planned event or occur in a timely fashion or the recognition will fail to connect with the act being recognized.
3. Lack of choice: The recipients should have a say in what they receive. Multiple choices make the program even more effective.
4. Lack of communication: 60% of companies that actively communicated and supported the inventor recognition program saw increases in idea disclosures.
U.S. Patent Services hope their clients can gain knowledge on giving their employees additional motivation through these recognition programs.
U.S. Patent Services has several ways to recognize employee's creative efforts. These include plaques, certificates, trophies and other motivational items.
