We’re not recognizing our team members the right way
Companies should create a culture of appreciation through their recognition strategies and programs that don’t focus on fancy trophies, expensive gifts, or money, but on a feeling.
Appreciation is an ongoing effort
The goal is to move the strategy to where every employee feels appreciated, not just a few. Organizations must make recognition occur for all of the small things that matter and make a difference, not just the big ones. With continuous recognition, people feel valued and appreciated. Above all, the efforts must be genuine, meaningful and inclusive.

Burn down HR? Say it ain’t so! Jessica Winder, Senior VP of People at Refine Labs, thinks traditional HR is cruising for a bruising. She has found tremendous success by turning the world of people ops on its head.
Cut the b.s. and treat professionals like adults!
If HR feels a bit like the Wicked Witch of the West peering over your shoulder, you’re not alone. While traditional HR is focused on compliance and risk aversion, modern day people ops should spend their time and energy improving the employee experience and setting the team up for success.
