Reply for "In Appreciation"

I would like to share my first blog post with the thoughts, which are freely flown through my mind. Hope this is a good day to start writing freely, because today is the 67th Independence Day of my country.:)
I thought to start my blog with one of the nice memories of my work place.  Actually this was a good starting for the year 2015. Even though I wanted to start posting to the blog since long time ago, it delayed with different reasons. And this is the trigger which fired to motivate me for start this as well.
It was one of the memorable days for me, hopefully for other team members as well. It was 2nd of January 2015 and was a normal working day. Most importantly a beautiful Friday ;) We got an email saying that we all have a meeting at 10.30 am. And we went to the conference room at 10.30. All of the members of my team were sitting around the table and curiously waiting for the presentation. And our most senior personal of the team started the presentation with an introduction. He wanted to appreciate each individual for the contribution they have put for the success of the project throughout the last year.  And he said that he is going to use 3 words for each and he will not repeat those for any other.
It was a presentation with one slide for each with a fun picture of that person and the 3 words that describes that person.  It was so nice to hear such a senior person describing about each and every junior members of the team and appreciating their efforts.  Not only it was a presentation with full of fun but also it was so touching meeting as well. It was really a wonderful way of appreciating others and thanking others. So this is how he described me with one of my crazy photographs. :D



Finally that wonderful presentation ended up with a piece of delicious cake that he bought himself for all of us. I left the conference room with the determination of adding different 3 words for me at the end of this year !!.
Even though I have different milestones to achieve throughout this year, I am keeping that promise to myself, because I know that will anyway help for my career path and also my personal life in future wherever I go. 


Thank you !!

Cheers !!

It's better way to motivate people who are working for a long time. And it's a creative marketing idea to increase the team spirit and the productivity of a team.
