| Be
prepared to defend nominations against your
pre-established goals, objectives and / or measures;
otherwise, the program could degrade into a lottery or
rotation and quickly lose its credibility.
Some
organizations prefer a formal review process where the
nominating party must complete a form detailing the
employee's accomplishments. This for usually
goes through several levels of review. If your
organization is small with few levels of management, a
committee of employees could serve as the reviewing
party.
When
announcing and giving recognition include an equal and
appropriate amount of fanfare as you did in the
introduction phase. Publicize the winner in
newsletters and other forms of communication.
Clearly
announce the name of the winner and WHY they were
selected. This helps reinforce outstanding
performance and clarifies what type of performance
will be rewarded.
