It’s so easy to take the hard work of others in your team for granted – to just expect people to do great work day in day out.
It’s also so easy for good deeds to go unnoticed, and to simply say “thanks” and move on with your day.
But think about the last time someone specifically spoke to you to tell you how much they appreciated something you did. It felt good, didn't it?
Being aware of what you think and what you actually express to others will likely cause you to realise that others around you aren’t aware of how much you appreciate them.
At GoSquared, for a long time we’ve put specific time aside each week to share thanks and praise within the team.
Every Friday it’s the best way to start the weekend – knowing others on the team appreciated something you did.
Next time you’re wondering whether or not to call someone out to thank them in front of the team, don’t wait, don’t hesitate, just do it.
