4. Will Sean be successful in improving the staff’s attitude towards the company and why?

Employees deserve recognition for their hard work, creative ideas and commitment to the company. “Employee recognition is the timely, informal or formal acknowledgement of a person’s or teams behavior, effort or business result that supports the organization’s goals and values, and which has clearly been beyond normal expectations” (Wiley & Kowske, 2012). It is important to show employees your appreciation for their work so they can understand how they are valued by the company. The effect of this action helps to increase employee satisfaction and productivity. Rewarding employees
