Build a committed workforce with these simple employee appreciation steps for large enterprises. Foster a positive work culture!
Developing a committed workforce is challenging for todays competitive business landscape. Simply recruiting great employees is no longer enough, you have to keep them on your team to sustain a competitive advantage. Showing employees your appreciation is the key to retaining top talent. The task may seem daunting at first, but there are simple steps to incorporating an effective appreciation program.
The excitement employees feel when they start a new job doesn’t have to fade. It won’t if they are engaged and appreciated. When employees don’t feel a connection they can start to feel like a number. Each has unique ambitions and goals, so you have to connect with them to understand their motivations. That might seem time-consuming in a larger environment but you can make strides by engaging employees in company discussions.
You’ll gain buy-in by allowing employees to contribute their opinions. Ad-hoc committees can focus on single events like planning a company celebration. Standing committees may review broader issues like the company’s insurance plans. These committees can become forums of engagement. Encouraging employees to be a part of the dialogue will make them feel connected and invested in the company’s mission. You’ll gain a better understanding of how your employee appreciation efforts are being received.
A sense of purpose and shared destiny can be a powerful motivator, so always seek opportunities to create connections. The holidays are an easy time to show your appreciation to employees and their families. Company picnics and year-end holiday parties are tried and true, but you can create other fun initiatives to promote and maintain the spirit year-round.
The blank walls in your corridors are valuable real estate. They can be a canvas to display your commitment. For example, seasonal holidays present an opportunity to engage employees. A rotating display of their children’s artwork can promote those shared bonds. Contests with modest prizes can generate more participation. These efforts can become a great reinforcer of your culture.
Look for opportunities to highlight the successes of your employees. Seek hidden talents within your ranks to showcase at company events. If someone sings or plays guitar, invite them to perform before a meeting. If you employ budding artists, create an informal art gallery and display their projects. Make flyers to promote these events. Shared memories help create traditions and enhance company culture, so take photos on every occasion.
Walk the hallways and ask questions. After events or the launch of a new initiative, ask your employees how they feel and what they think. Engage your managers as well to ensure they feel motivated too. You’ll be amazed at the excellent feedback and new ideas your outreach will generate.

Yes, at Assembly, security is a top priority. Each quarter, we have ongoing security work that is everyone’s responsibility. While we maintain a strong security posture, it was important for us to prove to our customers that we do everything we claim to do. This led us to pursue a SOC 2 Type II report that would provide evidence of our compliance with industry gold-standard security practice.

Assembly connects to the tools your employees use every day to offer an easy, seamless experience with minimal change management.

That depends on the company's permissions set up. That said, over 90% of the employees on Assembly's platform are recognized on a monthly basis. That means nearly every employee across all of our customers are receiving regular recognition from their peers, managers, or leadership. We're extremely proud of this.
They are not required. You can use Assembly without having rewards set up. However, we don't recommend it if you intend to have a high adoption and usage rate. You can always keep the costs down by offering internal culture rewards that are fulfilled by you internally.
No, you can remove allowances from anyone or everyone. It's up to you but we do recommend using points whether they're worth a real dollar value or not. Companies that use points have a much higher engagement rate even if those points don't exchange for real dollars.
