Putting one employee on pedestal
Avoid setting the expectation that a reward is the indicator of how well someone is doing. Acknowledge that recognition programs end up making a much larger number of people feel like losers. Don’t raise one person up on a pedestal for the ones left below on the ground feel resentful. Express appreciation informally. Create a culture of people who come to work wanting to do the right thing. Kill your „Employee of the Month” program.
