Understand the value of recognizing your employees
Employee recognition is well worth the time and the money you put into it. This letter is the only tool that makes the employees feel right about themselves, the goals accomplished and the company. Recognition may involve gifts in many forms or awards or recognition letters that encouraged the workers to keep doing it. Unlike the awards, the letters give a personal touch as words are known to do amazing soul healing. When an employee's soul prospers you can rest assured they will be incredible productivity in the workplace. An outstanding recognition letter should be simple and straightforward; it should recognize and appreciate the different staff's contribution. You can add to a gift hamper or a salary increment to the recognition letter making the employee glad.

By the end of the project, we noted that all your team members were highly qualified with skills you patiently instilled in them that they are now heads of different projects. You are a true example of a leader who takes up the position of a servant and leads from example; surely we can see your fruit displaying your excellence in the field.
As the company recognizes you today, you receive a higher position of an operations manager and of course a higher salary effective from 1st October 2015. A complete guide and contract for the new post will be emailed to you soon.
