How Recognition Supercharges Growth
āWithout continual growth and progress, such words as improvement, achievement, and success have no meaning.ā
āBenjamin Franklin
š± What Seeds of Progress and Prosperity Have We Planted This Week?
Sometimes a team gets so busy that they miss the progress that's been madeā¦Key milestones are met, but no one takes time to celebrate or recognize the effort. New initiatives start gaining traction, but they get lost in the rush to meet existing deadlines. Individuals achieve remarkable breakthroughs, and their accomplishments remain a well-kept secret.
When celebrating progress is left to the HR team as an occasional morale boostāitās easy for momentum to fade and prosperity to stall.
But not on ROCKET-powered teams. High-performing teams build the habit of consistent recognitionātracking and celebrating wins of all sizes.
š Why It Matters: Recognition = Acceleration
When you take time to ask, āWhat seeds of progress and prosperity have we planted?ā you do more than reflectāyou ignite forward momentum.
Recognition of Progressāone of the four pillars of the CREW Team Methodāproduces real results:
ā Boosts morale by reinforcing meaningful effort
š Builds momentum through compound growth of small wins
š¦ Brings visibility to unseen breakthroughs that deserve celebration
š Solidifies winning behavior by consistently signaling what great looks like
š” Quick Ritual for Team Leaders
Before the week ends, ask your team:
š āWhat progress did we make this weekābig or small?ā
š āWhat seeds of future success did we quietly plant?ā
Then recognize it. Name it. Celebrate it.
Because what we recognize, we reinforceāand what we reinforce, we repeat.
