2012, what a year!I was fortunate enough to receive a promotion in July. With this promotion came lots of changes at work; more hours, more travel, a big learning curve, but an opportunity to lead an incredible team of individuals. It was an opportunity to hopefully motivate others to grow with me as I learned the ropes of a new role and being back in the saddle as a leader.Over these past six months I couldn’t have asked more from a group of individuals. A group that everyday got up ready to work long hours and sometimes weekends to make a difference for our customers.
Today I shipped out “thank you packages” to my team, a small token of my appreciation for their dedication and commitment in 2012.If you are fortunate to work, or choose to work, can you think of at least one person that makes your job easier? That makes you want to be the best you can in your job? That pushes you to make improvements and be as successful as possible?I encourage you to drop a note in the mail, if you can afford it, maybe add a gift card, your favorite tea or chocolate as a token of your appreciation.It isn’t the amount of money you spend on the gift that makes a difference, but the action of taking the time to say THANK YOU!
