Advantages of Recognizing a Good Leader

As we all know, finding people who are naturally great leaders can be a challenge. This is especially true in the corporate setting. Consequently, when you get to work with an amazing boss, you obviously want to let them know you have noticed their talents.

By offering a "thank you" to your boss for Boss Appreciation Day or some other celebratory event, you can gain the benefits that come from showing your managers you notice and admire their abilities. Here are some advantages of recognizing your superb supervisor:

• The best leaders are likely to stick around. When leaders are recognized for being excellent bosses, they may be less likely to leave your company to go to a competitor's business. This means you get to keep a fantastic leader for longer.
• Your leader will work harder. When we are recognized for doing something well, we tend to put more effort into raising the bar even higher. This may mean that your good boss becomes a great boss next year, which can only result in your team being happier.
• Your boss will remember that employees are watching. Bosses sometimes feel like they are working in a vacuum. By saying thanks, you acknowledge that you are aware of what they do on a day to day basis. Therefore, your boss will feel a heightened sense of positive belonging and responsibility.

Below are a few tips and hints for you to create a wonderful gift to capture the way you feel about your phenomenal boss for Boss Appreciation Day.

Boss Day Poems

Many employees choose to send a gift when they want to say thank you but if you want to make it more personalized, the gift could also include a thank you poem to make your sincere appreciation and support for your boss known.

Boss Day Quotes From Songs

Is your boss the type who always works while listening to music? The next time you are in their office, be sure to tune in. Find out about your boss's favorite artists and songs. That way, when you customize an optical crystal plaque for your fearless leader, you can add a well-considered lyric engraving to the award.

One word of note — your boss will no doubt want to display the crystal plaque for years to come. Therefore, be cautious about choosing a lyric that will stand the test of time and be perfect for any audience. Yes, humorous lyrics can be amusing from an inside-joke perspective, but usually a quote should be professional, above-board and suitable for all occasions.

Boss Day Quotes From Movies and TV

Perhaps your boss constantly talks about binge-watching certain TV shows. Maybe they love to check out classic movies from the 1940s or 50s.

Using what you know about your manager's cinema and television watching habits, start hunting around the Internet for great quotes to include in a card or on a crystal plaque. Almost every movie or TV show has its own set of characters who have said at least one memorable line. Your job is to find the line that best matches your boss's personality, then have it engraved or added to your Boss Appreciate Day gift.

Give a Nod to Good Leaders

If you have been given the gift of working under a good leader, let them know you care.
