❓ Seeking ideas on how to nurture genuine appreciation within your teams? 🔖 Read my latest for Forbes Nonprofit Council for some ideas on where to start. "In the world of nonprofits, where passion for the cause often supersedes financial incentives, fostering a culture of appreciation is paramount. Yet, all too often, the invaluable contributions of nonprofit staff members go unrecognized and uncelebrated. In this era of heightened competition for talent, remote work environments and increased burnout rates, nonprofit leaders must prioritize staff appreciation and recognition as a strategic imperative. Within this, it is also essential to strike a balance between cultivating genuine appreciation and inadvertently fostering a culture of mere niceness—where gratitude becomes routine and detached from meaningful achievement." 👀 Read more below: https://lnkd.in/eminFUmT

As a small business owner, providing competitive salaries is not always sufficient to motivate your staff. It is crucial to implement effective appraisal methods, as rightly pointed out by Page Hinerman. Some other appraisal methods include: 1. Performance-based bonuses: Offering bonuses or incentives for outstanding performance can be a significant motivator for employees. 2. Regular performance evaluations: Regular evaluations help employees understand their strengths and weaknesses, allowing for targeted development and recognition of achievements. 3. Promotion opportunities: Providing clear paths for advancement within the organization can motivate employees to perform at their best. 4. Recognition programs: Acknowledging employee achievements through awards, certificates, or public praise can boost morale and encourage continued dedication. These appraisal methods are not only beneficial for nonprofit organizations but are also applicable to for-profit organizations. They contribute to team morale and ensure employee dedication to the success of the organization.

What to do about this challenge? We believe the answers lie in stronger community voice efforts. Want to know more? Check out our upcoming webinars.

For those of us in the sector, are we surprised? The grind culture of nonprofits is grinding its people to the ground. Learning how to build efficiencies and time management techniques are all well and good, but at a certain point we need to realize that we don't need to heap more work, more deadlines, and more goals on people in an effort to be more productive because it's having a deleterious effect on staff, organizational culture, and employee retention.
