Culture Bytes: Culture Change in an Envelope: Thank You Notes
In this Culture Byte episode of Culture Change RX, Capstone’s Cofounder & CEO Sue Tetzlaff shares a Story That Inspires about one of the simplest yet most effective leadership tactics: writing thank you notes. She emphasizes that appreciation should not be a one-off initiative but a regular, heartfelt practice. Leaders who consistently recognize employees connect their efforts to organizational impact, fostering motivation and loyalty. This short episode serves as both an encouragement and a practical reminder for leaders to embed recognition into their daily leadership routines.
- Recognition isn’t a program—it’s a consistent practice.
- Thank you notes are a simple, quick, and meaningful way to show appreciation.
- Consistency and specificity make recognition more impactful.
- Recognition bridges the gap between effort and impact, helping employees see the difference they make.
- Leaders who make recognition a daily habit strengthen trust, morale, and organizational culture.
