Reid All About it
JULY 14, 2011
If you’re one of my Facebook or Twitter friends, you know I love the Tour de France. You probably also noticed how angry I am about ESPN’s Michael Smith laughing online and during his show, Around the Horn , about two cyclists being hit hard by a car on Sunday during stage 9 of the Tour. You can see how hard in the video shown on Dutch TV. No Dutch is required to know what the commentators are saying.

I subscribe to, and occasionally read, a blog published by marketing expert Seth Godin. I think Seth has some very interesting observations and useful tips on marketing. If you haven’t read some of his books like, Permission Marketing or All Marketers Are Liars , you should. I don’t always agree with Seth, but he often causes me to think about something in a way I haven’t before.

This morning I was reminded that I spend a lot of my time in a world that’s very different than the world many others live in. Maybe I’m in a bubble. When the citizens of my world go to an educational session or a conference, we bring our laptops and phones. We take them out, listen and type, tweet or text. This is how we digest information, learn and share.

The yogurt shop near my home is packed most days right now. In December? Not so much. Try to snag a last-minute seat on a fairly full flight and you're likely to pay far more than the passenger who booked months in advance. But walk into a hotel at 10 p.m. and you might just negotiate an unbelievable rate since the room is about to go unsold. And that $4 bottle of water at the outdoor concert in 95 degree heat provides value that makes you momentarily forget about the outrageous mark-up you are

Employee recognition has often been deemed a "feel-good" initiative, tied closely to rewards. While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance. In today’s workplace, the true ROI of recognition lies in its ability to regenerate tangible, business-driven results.
