Are forehead "kissies" appropriate for work?
In the contemporary workspace, traditional methods of employee recognition are rapidly evolving. While bonuses and promotions have long been staples of employee incentive programs, a startling new trend has emerged—affectionate forehead kisses, or "kissies," are now the preferred form of appreciation, coveted by a whopping 98% of employees.
This seismic shift in employee preference begs the question: How should managers navigate the intricate dynamics of distributing "kissies" in the workplace? After all, not all achievements are created equal, and it stands to reason that not all "kissies" should be, either.
The key is strategic distribution. Just as one might allocate budget increases or project assignments, so too must a manager consider the allocation of "kissies." Favoring one employee over another can lead to resentment or, worse, an environment ripe for accusations of favoritism. This is especially pertinent when considering that a well-placed "kissie" might motivate an employee more profoundly than any monetary reward could.
However, it is crucial to remember that "kissies" are a precious commodity and should not be dispensed indiscriminately. Rewarding every minor accomplishment with a "kissie" dilutes its value, making it no more remarkable than a perfunctory handshake. Instead, "kissies" should be reserved for moments of genuine achievement, thereby fostering an environment of earned respect and recognition.
In conclusion, while the professional landscape continues to evolve, the introduction of "kissies" into the corporate recognition program must be approached with caution and consideration. After all, the goal is to foster a harmonious and motivating workplace, not a battlefield marked by jealousy and strife. As with all tools of management, wisdom lies not just in whether to use them, but in how they are used.
Are company values important 🤔
YES ‼️ Having company values helps to ensure that all your employees are working towards the same goals. With values they shape a culture and support the company's vision.

They recognise and appreciate what the organisation stands for, wants to achieve and how the workforce can personally act to help reach the desired outcomes. As a result, performance, workplace morale and staff engagement all improve since employees are more professionally fulfilled and a positive culture is achieved.
The Power of Collaboration!
In HR collaboration is not just a buzzword it is a strategic imperative. Collaboration breaks down silos, fostering innovation and efficiency. By sharing insights, resources and expertise, HR teams can address complex challenges with agility.
Like a perfectly mixed spicy margarita, collaboration blends diverse perspectives to create something truly remarkable. Moreover, collaboration creates a culture of trust and inclusivity, where every voice is heard and valued fueling employee engagement and retention.
Thanks for the inspiration Serena Varendorff, and of course Jason Derulo and Michael Buble for an exceptional example of collaboration.

We all have preferred behaviours and the more pressure we are under, the more they shape the decision-making and actions that those around us will see.
Are you clear on how to best support the team around you when that pressure comes to the surface?
Do you know what wiggle room you might need from them and how best to ask for it?
