How can companies create a culture of recognition and appreciation beyond just personalized awards and certificates to ensure employees feel valued and motivated in the long term?

Appreciation
Companies can create a culture of recognition and appreciation by implementing regular feedback sessions where employees are acknowledged for their contributions. Encouraging peer-to-peer recognition can also foster a sense of appreciation among colleagues. Providing opportunities for professional development and growth, such as mentorship programs or training sessions, can show employees that their development is valued by the company. Additionally, creating a supportive work environment where open communication is encouraged and employees feel heard and respected can contribute to a culture of recognition and appreciation.
