One of the local radio stations in town uses the saying "The phrase that pays" for an ongoing contest. They call you and ask for the phrase. If you say it back correctly, you win.
After reading a post by Lee Cockerell on "101 Ways to Praise a Child or Anyone Else" this phrase came to mind. Are you praising your team enough? Are you offering praise evenly?
Praise can be a great motivator. But if not applied fairly, it can be a blow to someone's self confidence. As a leader, become the cheerleader for your team.
