More than presenting workers a pat on the shoulder, companies can also present a plaque appreciating the employees‘ part to the company. A trophy is a tangible token of the workers hardwork, too, and can therefore have perpetual impact on their morale. A trophy is simple to ready and will not cost the company as much funds.
A trophy is not a stranger to sports contests. In fact, it is a key part of that event. A competition without a trophy doesn’t seem like a serious one. It’s what the contestants are fighting for, the symbol of their victory.
Trophies aren’t just seen in physical competitions. Even a neighborhood grade school’s Spelling Bee contest gives away a trophy to the grand winner. They are also given in village events, such as cooking contests, pie-eating contests, beauty pageants, and talent contests.
But it doesn’t always have to be a prize for the game winners. Believe it or not, there is also a need for trophies at the office.
Staff members who have done an exceptional job are usually given appreciation plaques by the management. With these plaques, the staff members know that their hard work is recognized and greatly valued, and whatever their place in the office is, they will strive to do more because they know they are valued members.
If plaques show appreciation and encourage hard work, trophies can keep the balance in the office. A trophy doesn’t have to be about serious things all the time. It can be a source of amusement for the employees, who, amid the stress in the workplace, need a reminder that they need to loosen up a bit sometimes.
An annual „awards show“ can do the trick. Employees can vote for their fellow workers for funny categories. Examples are an award for the most deserving worker who has consumed the most cups of coffee in a day and a trophy for the office Karaoke King and Dancing Queen for the gifts they have exhibited during a previous office party.
Laughing with each other will help lessen the stress and tension their work brings. Having an „awards show“ to give out amusing awards every year will make the entire year entertaining for everyone. And that’s one way of creating balance in the workplace.
It’s not to ignite the competitive nature of the employees. The awards should not be somber at all, and should be amusing and inoffensive. These „honors“ will hopefully remind the employees that they may be in that place to work, but they are also working with their fellow employees. And while their job needs them to concentrate and give their best, they should also have time to relax and enjoy each other’s company.
