Employee Recognition Training

A program serving Supervisors, Managers and Teams. The STARS Workshop motivates, educates and
inspires supervisors, managers and/or teams to utilize employee recognition in a whole new way.

In our time together, we will identify what is important to you, your people and your business; explore various recognition
options and equip you with practical and comfortable tools and techniques that reflect your personal management/work style.

get a solid understanding of proven recognition processes and business strategies and leave with an individual action plan.
