What Gets Recognized Gets Done!: April 2012

RECOGNITION WORKS!

We give an award to the top sales guy, to the person with 25 years of service, to the truck driver with 1 million miles without a chargeable accident. We believe in the power of recognition. The why we do it may seem obvious, but it is a lot more than that.

We use recognition to:

Create a culture within the company that affects every attitude.

Say thanks and applaud success.

Teach others what we as an organization want to achieve.

Increase retention of employees.

Support Mission and Values.

Engage employees.

Encourage loyalty.

Increase customer satisfaction.

In summation, we believe in using recognition everyday to improve the bottom line. If that's important to you, then we're speaking the same language. Come with us on this journey.

Sportsmanship Awards Donated by RCB

Posted by Curt Denevan:

On Wednesday April 18, Curt Denevan of RCB Awards announced that the company, in conjunction with the Journal Sentinel Preps Plus, will donate a Sportsmanship Award to every local high school in southeastern Wisconsin. These awards are meant to highlight in each high school examples of great sportsmanship on the field of play. Too often class athletes are overlooked unless they are the leading scorer. This award allows the athletic director to select the student athlete that demonstrates the true spirit of sportsmanship.

RCB will also donate Academic Achievement Award to recognize outstanding academic honors. Each high school principal will be asked to determine their criteria for the award. The idea is that there are students who really put in extra effort and succeed. They should be recognized, not just the Valedictorian.

An announcement was sent to each southeastern Wisconsin athletic director and principal this week explaining the program and asking them to select their award recipients.

For additional information on awards for athletic and academic achievement, contact Curt Denevan or visit www.rcbawards.com. RCB Awards is an award and recognition firm based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin specializing in non-profit and corporate award programs for the last 20 years.
