How to Make Employees Feel Valued

Creating a workplace where employees feel valued and appreciated is essential for any organisation aiming to boost morale, enhance productivity and retain top talent. Feeling valued at work contributes significantly to employee satisfaction and loyalty. Here are practical ways to show appreciation to your staff and ensure they feel recognised.  

Benefits of making employees valued 

Let’s look at some of the key benefits of recognising and rewarding employees.   

Higher engagement  

Research shows that valued employees are more likely to be engaged than those who don’t feel appreciated. According to research by Gallup, “Employees who strongly agree that recognition is an important part of their organisation’s culture are 3.8 times as likely to be engaged and about half as likely to experience frequent burnout than those who do not.” Put simply, engaged employees are more likely to work harder and deliver better results for the business.   

Increased productivity  

Employees who feel valued and recognised are more productive. According to one study, 18.2% of an employee’s productivity can be attributed to job satisfaction. This highlights the direct link between valuing employees and operational efficiency.  

Enhanced job satisfaction 

Research indicates that feeling appreciated at work is a key driver of job satisfaction. Satisfied employees are more likely to take pride in their work and remain loyal to their employer, reducing turnover rates and recruitment costs. In fact, Gallup found that those who do not feel recognised are twice as likely to consider quitting in the next 12 months.  

Improved employee well-being 

Feeling valued has a significant impact on employee well-being, including mental health. When employees feel appreciated for their contributions, they can experience a range of benefits, including reduced stress and anxiety, an enhanced feeling of belonging, a sense of purpose and meaning in their work, and even improved sleep and physical health. Happy, healthy employees are more likely to remain loyal to an organisation and show dedication to their work.  

Boosting company profits 

There's a clear correlation between employee satisfaction and customer satisfaction. Happy employees are more likely to go the extra mile, leading to better customer experiences.  

Research by The Harvard Business Review and Glassdoor found that “each one-star improvement in a company’s Glassdoor rating corresponds to a 1.3-point out of 100 improvement in customer satisfaction scores.”

Retain top talent 

Employee turnover can be a significant financial cost. Replacing a departing worker can cost anywhere from six to nine months of their salary. By prioritising employee appreciation, companies can dramatically reduce turnover. A Gallup/Workhuman survey found that appreciated employees are 56% less likely to seek new jobs. Investing in employee appreciation is a strategic move that strengthens your workforce and your bottom line.  

Fostering innovation

Employees who feel appreciated are more likely to share their ideas and innovations. Recognition validates employees' efforts, giving them the confidence to experiment and take risks – essential ingredients for innovation. Appreciated employees are more likely to share their knowledge and expertise with colleagues, fostering a cross-pollination of ideas that fuels innovation. 

How to make employees feel valued in your business 

The benefits of employee recognition are clear. Let's look at some of the best ways to make your people feel valued.  

Acknowledge their hard work 

Feeling undervalued at work can drain enthusiasm and lead to burnout. Luckily, a simple "thank you" can be a powerful antidote.  

  • Personal appreciation: One US survey showed that 75% of employees believe their motivation and morale would significantly improve if managers simply acknowledged their hard work more frequently, personally and sincerely. Recognition for their efforts makes employees feel seen and appreciated. 
  • Public recognition: Celebrate successes and milestones publicly. Whether in team meetings, on company social media, or through internal newsletters, public acknowledgment boosts morale and shows that their contributions are valued by the entire organisation. 

Provide opportunities for growth 

Professional development is key to employee satisfaction. Conduct regular performance reviews and offer opportunities for your employees to grow professionally. This could be through training, courses or workshops to help them advance in their careers. Employees feel valued when their employer invests in their future.  

Ensure fair compensation 

Competitive salaries and benefits are vital to attracting and retaining the best people: Regularly review and adjust compensation packages to ensure they are competitive and fair. Offering your team perks such as material rewards, additional entitlements or bonuses for outstanding performance shows appreciation for their dedication and hard work.  

Create a supportive environment 

A workplace where employees feel valued goes beyond simply acknowledging their contributions. It's about nurturing a supportive environment that promotes well-being, growth, and engagement. 

  • Encourage feedback: Develop a culture where feedback is encouraged and valued. Listening to and acting on employee feedback demonstrates you value their opinions and are committed to making improvements based on their suggestions. 
  • Better work-life balance: Promote a healthy work-life balance by offering flexible working arrangements, such as remote work options or flexible hours. Recognising the importance of personal time shows you value their well-being. 

Tailor your appreciation

Understand what motivates your employees individually and tailor rewards and incentives accordingly. This could range from a day off to recognition in front of peers, depending on what they value most.  

Build a culture of appreciation 

Regular one-on-one meetings allow managers to connect with employees, provide support and recognise their contributions frequently. This ongoing dialogue ensures employees feel supported and valued throughout their tenure. It also offers an opportunity for employees to privately raise any concerns or issues  

Delivering appreciation that resonates 

Saying "thank you" is a great start, but effective recognition goes beyond a single phrase. Here are some key considerations to ensure your recognition efforts truly resonate with employees: 

  • Personalise it: A generic "good job" might be nice, but a specific mention of the employee's contribution and its impact shows you genuinely care. Tailor your recognition to the individual and their preferences. 
  • Consider the source: Recognition can come from various sources, and each carries its own weight. Public recognition from a manager holds value, but a heartfelt thank you from a colleague can be equally meaningful. Encourage peer-to-peer recognition programs to foster a supportive team environment. 
  • Timing is key: Don't let a good deed go unnoticed. Deliver recognition as close to the accomplishment as possible to solidify the connection between the action and the appreciation. 
  • Match the recognition to the achievement: A small win might deserve a verbal shout-out, while a major accomplishment could warrant a public award or a bonus. Tailor the recognition to the significance of the achievement. 
  • Be specific: Vague praise can feel insincere. Highlight the specific actions or qualities you appreciate. "Thanks for taking the initiative on that project and finding such a creative solution" is more impactful than a simple "well done." 

The power of appreciation: cultivating a thriving workplace

Investing in employee appreciation isn't just about boosting morale; it's a strategic investment in the success of your entire organisation.  By having a culture of recognition and support, you can unlock a wealth of benefits, from increased productivity and innovation to lower turnover and higher customer satisfaction.

International HR Day – A Guide for Small Businesses

Human Resources professionals are often the unsung heroes of successful businesses. Tasked with recruiting the best talent and keeping a whole company connected, HR plays an integral role in ensuring a business runs smoothly and reaches its goals. With International HR Day upon us, it’s time to acknowledge hardworking HR teams the world over. To mark the occasion, let’s explore the meaning of International HR Day, why it’s important, and what your company can do to celebrate its human resources heroes.  What is International Human Resources Day?  International HR Day is all about giving recognition to the important work human resource professionals perform while looking after a business’s most prized asset – its people.   More specifically, International HR Day is also about acknowledging the way we work is changing and the role HR plays in that changing landscape. When is International Human Resources Day?  International HR Day falls every year on the 20th of May and this year’s theme has a tagline of “HumanifyAI: Leading Change Together”. This theme emphasises HR's role in a world of AI and recommends integrating human centric approaches and collaborative practices. Why is International Human Resources Day important?  International HR Day is important for several reasons. Firstly, the efforts of HR departments improve working lives for billions of other employees. This positively affects employee performance, meaning businesses can perform at the highest possible level. For all businesses, their greatest assets are their people. HR just doesn't simply hire people, it provides a pathway for employees, a structure for businesses, and it shapes what the next 5-10 years would look like. HR professionals are innovators, culture engineers, and architects of businesses. They drive compliance, they support personalised learning, and they create future leaders. The vision that effective HR professionals possess make them uniquely positioned to understand ways we can shape the future.   How HR can humanify AI  AI is a buzzword in many industries these days, and HR professionals are trying to ensure they prioritize human values and ethical considerations while also adopting AI for its benefits. HR professionals are also hoping to lead the change in organisations, by creating an environment that promotes flexibility, well-being, and productivity. Here’s a shortlist of simple people management processes your HR team can follow to create an human-led, AI-supported environment that all your workers will thrive in:   ✔ Recruitment and Onboarding: Implement inclusive hiring practices adopting AI and ensure that onboarding processes are inclusive. ✔ Employee Training and Development: Use technology to streamline training that promotes cultural understanding, awareness, and sensitivity. Using apps or internal systems can also simplify training and reduce manpower hours. ✔ Performance Management: Integrate AI and tech to ensure performance evaluations are conducted fairly and without bias. This can be supported by a human element to address the cultural and social nuances that AI might miss. ✔ Legal Compliance and Risk Management: AI tools can be utilised to ensure legal compliance and risk management. ✔ HR Analytics and Metrics: AI and tech can let you track metrics accurately and help you make performance management decisions. ✔ Workplace Safety and Health: AI and tech can be used to promote WHS practices and policies across the business. The best ways to celebrate International HR Day  In the spirit of celebrating International HR Day, here are a few ways that you and your company can spotlight your HR team’s success:  1) Acknowledge and reward your HR team: It’s the perfect opportunity to acknowledge all the hard work that goes into HR. You might send a company-wide email giving recognition to your HR leaders, the team’s most effective initiatives, or even a high-performing employee.  2) Show a little HR love on socials: Much of what HR teams achieve goes on in the background. International Human Resources Day is a perfect opportunity to position their efforts front and centre. If you decide to pay tribute to the department’s work, do so on social media and inspire the larger HR community.   3) Take practical action: Make the day more than symbolic and implement practical HR improvements. Speak to your HR team and find out what changes could remove pain points from their job roles. After gaining insight, put together a plan and execute any viable improvements.  Does your business need help with HR headaches?  Peninsula helps thousands of businesses maintain happy, healthy and harmonious environments where people can perform their best work.

Collaborating Remotely and Building Effective Teams Virtually

Many people easily picture traditional in-person team building exercises, but what do virtual team building activities look like? Are they effective in encouraging remote collaboration and building effective virtual teams over time? In short, yes. At length, also yes, and with the science and fun to back it up. What is virtual team building? Virtual team building is the development of strong remote teams in a digital space. Employees still come together to get to know one another and grow their skills interdependently. The only difference is that it’s conducted online, typically for remote employees who sometimes, rarely, or never meet in person. The end goal, whether onsite or online is the same: together everyone achieves more. What are the benefits of virtual team building? It may surprise you to find out that flexible work arrangements sometimes are not as flexible for the mind and body. Remote team members tend to work more than on-site workers. Burnout still happens to remote workers. The peace and independence that remote work brings can also feel isolating. However, bringing the staff together through virtual team building activities can do the following: Boost team morale and collaboration Establish a palpable work culture built on community Encourage creativity, innovation, and versatility Increase positive reinforcement and improve communication skills overall Foster a communal work ethic built on trust and interdependence, while highlighting individual talents Virtual team building exercises Need inspiration? Try these virtual team building exercises to encourage collaboration, creativity, and more: 1. Use icebreakers to start conversations What is your Myers-Briggs Type Indicator? Are you an INFJ? Wow! They have an uncanny sense of perception. What’s next on your bucket list? Rock climbers are really brave. So many people are scared of heights. Speaking of heights, how many of you have had that reoccurring dream where you have to fly a plane but don’t know how? Anyone? Oh! You have your pilot’s license! Well, that means you can help out with the whole plane thing IRL, right? Phew. Thanks. While that’s a pretty random example, you see how a few icebreakers start conversations and allow virtual team members to get to know each other. A few side conversations are fine, as it sparks enthusiasm and innovation, but keep a list of icebreakers to keep your virtual team members on track. 2. Host a virtual games day/night Games and activities have brought people together for ages, and just because you share a virtual workspace, doesn’t mean anyone has to miss out! Host a virtual games day or night. Challenge the virtual team to scour the company policies and resources to complete a scavenger hunt. If you want to remove the company from the theme, make a list of interesting things to find both on the internet and around the remote team members’ homes. 3. Pin the map Create an interactive map that allow each virtual team member to pin their hometown. If you have a diverse team located around the world, see just how big the virtual team is while feeling closer to each other while working from home. Challenge each team member to share one fact about themselves. Alternatively, try creating a global Foodie Map. Each virtual team member pins their most memorable restaurant and shares their favourite dish. 4. Start a book club If you are using your Slack channel to discuss books about inspirational entrepreneurs, why not start a book club? The topics and genres can change each month. Schedule a once a month meeting with discussion prompts. Talk about the book during a virtual happy hour over video chat. Take it a step farther. Why not encourage employees to take 30 minutes each Wednesday to read the selected Book of the Month on company time? Approved activities based on remote employee input makes the culture richer and gives everyone a much-needed break that doesn’t “waste” company funds. Meanwhile, remote team members are both rewarded and motivated. Useful tools for virtual team building How do you host virtual team building activities? The good news is that you use most of the necessary equipment regularly, such as video chat, conference calls, Slack channels, screen sharing, and more. Think of the tools virtual teams use every day. This may be a great way to covertly encourage virtual team members to feel more confident about these tools: Virtual team members may take turns telling two truths and one lie on the Slack channel. Remote team members can use screen sharing to do show and tell. Make the most of video chat or conference calling as team members share their best actor/actress impersonations. There are no limits to your imagination as you get everyone to explore how to make the most of your team’s tools through your team building exercises. Measuring the effectiveness of virtual team building So, how do you know if these team building activities actually brought remote employees together or not? What if the virtual team members completed the exercises out of a sense of obligation rather than enjoyment and bonding? How do you measure the effectiveness of virtual team building on various departments, such as their morale, productivity, sales, or service? If you don’t ask, then you will never know. Surveys are a tried and true format as well as directly asking team members one-on-one. What did remote team members find most interesting or valuable? What did they learn? What would team members change? Did certain activities have a positive impact on their role? It is also smart to have baseline metrics regarding absenteeism, productivity, and the data of different profit margins and rates over different times (days/weeks/months) ready. Use this baseline to note any changes, both before and after, as well as over time for your remote team. You can also adjust how often you conduct team building exercises accordingly as you observe the metrics shift. Remember, together everyone achieves more—TEAM. Virtual team building activities boost morale and trust among remote employees. This sense of well-being, trust, integrity, and trust among employees, whether online or onsite, is vital, especially when some employees may face sexual harassment or discrimination.

The Importance of Soft Skills in the Workplace

The modern workplace is more demanding, complex, competitive, collaborative and diverse than ever. For an employee to thrive under today’s conditions, they need the right balance of hard and soft skills. Hard skills are learned abilities that are acquired and enhanced through experience, practice, repetition and education. While they have always been essential, currently the demand for soft skills is on the rise. What are Soft Skills in the Workplace? Soft skills are difficult to visualise, given that they cover those intangible skills such as leadership, collaboration and communication. Many define soft skills as those innate human behavioural skills that combine interpersonal, situational and emotional abilities that help employees cope with the complexity and unpredictability of the modern workplace. In the past soft skills may not have been explicitly mentioned in the job ads but the importance of soft skills was always acknowledged, especially among those earmarked for promotion or management. Soft skills encompass emotional intelligence, which is critical when dealing with colleagues in stressful situations. The reasons soft skills are important in specific workplaces are many, such as demonstrating: How well an employee can fit into a group dynamic An indication of relationship building, be it with colleagues or clients The ability to grow a professional network The ability to accept and implement feedback, as well as look for ways to improve Attention to detail, time management and the ability to delegate prove employees are a reliable resource Initiative and motivation Leadership capabilities Why is it Important to Have Soft Skills? The importance of soft skills grows every year. Despite the rise in automation and artificial intelligence meaning more and more tasks are becoming automated,  people are still required to problem solve, innovate, manage conflict, and interpret and make decisions based on information. Without the ability to work together in a cohesive team, utilising soft skills like creativity and innovation along with technical skills, your organisation is either not going to be competitive or effective. In a rapidly changing work environment, being able to cope with change is paramount, and that’s when soft skills come to the fore. Being able to adapt and demonstrate agility are the hallmarks of successful organisations. Top 10 Soft Skills to Look Out For There are as many soft skills as there are innate human behavioural skills, but the top ten soft skills that employers should look for are: 1. Communication Skills Either oral or written, being able to communicate with clarity is vital to ensure effective interactions with customers and colleagues alike. Some examples of the benefits of an able communicator include: Clarity of messaging Confidence Demonstrating empathy Being able to actively listen to others Providing constructive feedback in a tactful way Being perceived as friendly and approachable is also an important skill to have in the workplace. 2. Teamwork Teamwork skills allow employees to operate in a group setting, quickly and effectively accomplishing tasks. Some examples of teamwork-related skills include: Conflict management Delegation Active listening Collaboration Idea exchange Negotiating 3. Adaptability Adaptability demonstrates an employee’s ability to embrace change – particularly important in fast-paced or constantly changing work environments. Some examples of adaptability include: Curiosity Decision-making Calmness Open-mindedness Critical thinking and analysis 4. Problem Solving Problem solving abilities use analytical and creative thinking to find solutions. Types of problem solving skills include: Lateral thinking Logical reasoning Initiative Conflict resolution Negotiation Decision making 5. Creativity Even though a broad type of soft skill, creativity is vital in developing innovative solutions to problems. Types of creative skills include: Problem solving Inspiration Imagination Insight Innovation 6. Work Ethic Work ethic is a soft skill that proves dedication, both to your organisation and to employee’s own career. This, in turn, can indicate an employee’s seriousness to the longevity and viability of their own career. Soft skills examples related to work ethic include: Integrity Responsibility Discipline Dependability Commitment *7. Interpersonal Skills * Interpersonal skills are vital, as they’re used every time employees interact and communicate, either with co-workers or with management. Examples include: Empathy Humour Mentoring Patience Tolerance 8. Time Management Time management skills are vital to a business working efficiently and productively. Employers know time management skills are important to ay well run business. Some time management skills are: Goal setting Prioritising Self-starter Focus Stress management 9. Leadership Leadership enables employees to guide others while achieving your business goals. It is critical for business success. Leadership skills include: Project management Empathy Conflict resolution Selflessness Agility Cultural intelligence 10.

Christmas Party Ideas For Small Businesses

Christmas is round the corner and for many businesses it means getting ready for the office Christmas party. Bored of the typical office Christmas lunches or dinners? We have some fun and unique ideas for small businesses. Gift Wrapping Party Whether there is 3 of you, or 20 of you, a gift-wrapping party can be a great way to get everyone together for an informal Christmas themed hang. You could lay chairs out and play a Spotify playlist, provide snacks, and chew the fat whilst wrapping your family’s gifts!  Not only will you get through a Christmas chore, but you can bond with your team as you discover who has a hidden talent for tying ribbon! If there’s a few of you, you could consider hiring a gift wrapper who does it all for you whilst you guys party! Christmas Cocktails Mixology Class Ask your staff for their favourite liquor tipple choices and give these to an experienced mixologist to visit to the workplace to show you how to mix these into some seasonal cocktails. Whatever their favourite tipple is, there’s a cocktail for them. Think Cranberry Daiquiri, White Russian, a Snowball and Ginger Moscow Mule. Christmas Bingo Christmas Bingo is a brilliant atmosphere making game. Everyone sits at their desks or in a communal area, all you need is someone to be the master of ceremonies and press play on the playlist. If you google ‘Christmas Bingo templates’, you’ll find bingo cards you can download and print, these can be personalised with music you know your staff likes, you can even choose the exact songs! The template makes a free downloadable bingo card with all your favourite songs on. You then make a playlist with these songs in and someone presses play on each song. When you hear a song on your bingo card, you cross off each song as you hear them, until you have a line of crosses and then you shout BINGO! It’s high energy and a great way to spend an evening with colleagues! Pyjama Party Some people love being in their comfy clothes rather than fancy dress. If you have a smaller team of employees who are run off their feet all year working hard, the team may relish the idea of turning up to work in pyjamas!  Christmas themed PJs would make it feel festive… You could even consider buying them Christmas theme PJs as a gift! Bowls of popcorn, some Christmas music and you’re set for a relaxed event that might just suit your business. Bad Sweater Party If your business enjoys a bit of silliness then wearing some Christmas themed sweaters might be perfect, especially if you all venture into a restaurant wearing them…. What’s the collective noun for a group of co-workers wearing Christmas sweaters? A gaggle? A herd? If sweaters are too warm for our weather, then Christmas themed t-shirts/singlets/ties/earrings could be fun. And those wearing them can be rewarded with first dibs on the Lolly Station… Lolly Station Christmas is the time of over-indulgence and it certainly doesn’t feel like Christmas without lollies and sweets and chocolates! Consider making a ‘station’ for lollies for the month of December in the workspace? A whole table could be a dedicated area where staff and employer can drop off lollies and cakes and sweet treats for staff to graze from all day. There could be prizes for best decorated cakes or a baking competition. Having a sweet treat station encourages a festive atmosphere, marking the season’s arrival. Silent Disco In a traditional silent disco, you would have 2 different playlists or DJs playing music on 2 different channels. Your staff can choose which music choices they like, and even swap who they are listening to as they go. If you take off the headphones, you can hear silence, and people singing along or to different songs at same time. It’s nice to see your workers letting loose with music. You could give the music choices to the music lovers at work, or build a shared playlist on Spotify where everyone pops songs they like, into the collaborative playlist. (When making the Spotify playlist, just click ‘collaborative’ on the list for everyone to add their choices.  You can easily hire a special silent disco kit for a reasonable amount. You’ll receive pairs of headsets and a receiver that you plug your phone/iPad/tablet/computer into and play the songs from that. You can have two different sets of music so you can cater for all tastes of music, it’s funny seeing your co-workers dancing with their arms in the air singing along to Another one bites the dust when you’re listening to Dolly Parton! Small Business Christmas Party Ideas Whatever you decide to do, it’s important to mark the festive season with your staff to show you appreciate them. Even if your business hasn’t been as successful as you’d hoped this year, or you’re too busy for a celebration until autumn, then remember it’s not the gifts and parties that make staff feel valued. It’s the words of thanks for all their hard work and showing that you notice their efforts all year round.  Your HR and HSW partner If you find you don’t have enough time in the day anymore, consider engaging employee relations advisors such as Peninsula.
