Recognition
is critical in all kinds of relationships. In business, it usually means a
person is called out for a good performance in front of the company or they get
a promotion.
The most meaningful kind of recognition is the kind that is
not very public, not very formal and seldom ends up with a new title or salary.
It's the day-to-day acknowledgment of what a person is
really good at. It requires an interruption of whatever is going on and
actually stopping and remarking on that. Much of the time this doesn't happen
because it's a hassle or seems unneeded.
But it is needed. It will change an underutilized person
into a star or an insecure person into a confident one.
Recognize, see what a person just did well or always does
well. After you do it, see if it really was a waste. I'm betting you'll
recognize it wasn't.
