132A Basket of Recognition

Recognition implies a good deal of attention for a deserving employee, and one reward that both gives and grabs attention is a basket of goodies. These baskets are colorful displays, typically filled with delectable treats. When a basket appears on an employee’s desk, anyone within eyeshot knows that some serious recognition is happening.

You can make this a personalized reward by steering away from off-the-shelf baskets. If you reward your employee with a basket of foods that he or she does not like, the ingredients are going to end up in a different kind of basket, and so is the recognition that goes with it.
