Giving recognition in the Practical Manager
Click the Recognition
section in the main menu, indicated by a heart icon.
Tip: “You must use a real person name and surname. Do not pretend to be somebody or something else, as you like to stroke real people. Remember, strokes are basis for relationships, which are the most important part of ones life. They are also the most important part of business since you can only do business and succeed in doing business when having good relationships with people that matter most – your employees and colleagues.”

This is the section where you give strokes
to other people. Giving somebody recognition means showing positive attention
for their behaviour, performance, or recent achievements.
Helping people do their best means catching
people doing things right and sharing recognition with them. Focus on success by
recognising your team members for doing a good job in the following three areas:
values/behaviour, performance in one of their key areas, or goals/achievements.
- Select a team member from your
organisation or enter the name and email of another person on the right-hand side
- Select an area, e-g,
Employeeship / Performance / Achievement
- Select the described behaviour as required and
- Add a personal note
Remember to enter a short
note for the person receiving the stroke. Be specific! Only then can you submit your
recognition card. The note or comment is the message you want to share with
your friend and fellow team member.
