I was speaking with a client yesterday and despite not being able to provide salary reviews, they will be focusing on reward and recognition, as they value its importance now more than ever. We are hearing this more often than not and pleased to hear that despite these times, companies are still investing in the people they have. According to Hewitt 70% of Australian companies currently have head count freezes, so it makes you think, you best make the most of the ones you have.
April signals the start of the events season so RedBalloon will be out in force and we hope to catch up with you. And hurry, scroll to the bottom really quickly if you want a chance to WIN a BRW subscription!

Creating a culture of appreciation
|
 | Pharmaceutical suppliers APHS were faced with a challenge. A survey found their people didn't believe they received enough recognition and their reward program lacked consistency and excitement. This case study shows how APHS turned it all around and created a deep-seated culture of appreciation.

Fact: 'Experiences' lead to greater happiness
|
 | Don't just take it from us. A new psychology study suggests that buying life experiences rather than material possessions leads to greater happiness for both the consumer and those around them.
