Customer service is alive and well, at least at Home Depot. I can say that because this morning I had to stop there to exchange something. The people I dealt with were: friendly, helpful, conversational, interested, focused, accommodating. It was hassle-free. And to top it off - they were open when I needed them - 7:00 am. If only other stores knew that some of us working folks like to get things done early.

I’ve seen quite a few posts lately from social media specialists complaining about the lack of stature, engagement and respect they have within their organizations. Here’s the thing folks: respect is earned. No one is going to give it to you by dint of your job description or the number of followers you have on Twitter. They will give it you when you help them create value, when you help them to achieve their goals, when you make their job easier.

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.
