TESTIMONIALS
"You were simply outstanding. Specifically, your suggestions
on low-cost-no-cost appreciation were well-worth stealing - the
car wash in particular. Thank you for inspiring us and
entertaining us, for making us laugh and for making us sing. We
have been talking about how much we thoroughly enjoyed the show,
for you are quite a performer -- delivering both steak and
sizzle. Thank you forever, on behalf of all who were inspired."
- Governor of Michigan
"You did more in one hour to bring rewards and recognition
to life than any of the rest of us could do over months and
months of trying. Thank you! I've heard many comment that you
were the best speaker they've heard at any HSBC conference ever,
anywhere in the world." - HSBC Bank
"Adrian and Chester. I have to thank you for the fabulous
presentation you made to Memorial Hermann middle managers. Your
book is great; however hearing you deliver your message in
person has so much more impact. You connect all the dots from
living the culture of an organization, knowing individual
employees and their contributions and efforts, and creating
recognition/award opportunities that honor and value employees.
Halleluiah, Brothers!" - Memorial Hermann Health Care

Everything You Need to Know About Recognition You Learned from Your
Mom
Who says employee recognition has to be difficult? Using
a combination of non-cash recognition and simple
training for the presentation of formal awards, many of
today's leading companies are successfully transforming
their corporations into "Carrot Cultures" - creating
workplaces where employees are committed, profitability
is high, and retention is among the best in their
industries. In a presentation that serves exceptionally
well as a keynote address or breakout, authors and
recognition consultants to numerous Fortune 100 firms,
Chester Elton and Adrian Gostick illustrate how
companies like KFC/Tricon, Avis, and Johnson & Johnson
spread the power of recognition across diverse locations
and how every organization can implement these simple
principles.
You'll learn:
Recognition/motivation programs do not need to be
complex or expensive. Most non-monetary and formal
recognition doesn't have the impact it should. With a
few simple ideas used in America's best companies, you
can increase the impact of the recognition presentation.
The impact of recognition on your organization can be
measured. Companies have learned how to measure the
impact of recognition.
The Invisible Employee: Realize the Hidden Potential in Everyone
There's a crisis in business today: the invisible
employee. Feeling overlooked, ignored and unappreciated,
these invisible employees fight back the only way they
know how ... by staying hidden in the corporate shadows,
doing just enough to get by, grumbling about this and
that, and passing these techniques along to new workers.
You probably know your share of these folks -- you may
even have a few working for you. But what can be done?
Employee recognition experts Chester Elton and Adrian
Gostick teach how simple praise and recognition
techniques will result in productive employees who feel
noticed, valued and appreciated. Their compelling
presentation is packed with examples and best practices
from leading companies such as DHL, VNU Media
Measurement, Xcel Energy, and Friendly Ice Cream
Corporation.
The Invisible Employee: Realize the Hidden Potential in
Everyone discusses real leaders who have learned how to
better manage employees by valuing and appreciating
them. In today's competitive environment, all of us are
looking for the next big product, the next big
capability or solution. But great managers are turning
back to the basics. They are finding that recognizing
people leads to a more engaged workforce and a more
successful business.
