If you're only recognizing results, you're missing the most powerful leadership lever you’ve got.

In this episode of Leadership Rewired, we’re talking about something leaders often overlook: recognition.

No, not just the ‘Employee of the Month’ stuff. We mean real, timely, specific recognition—the kind that builds trust, boosts motivation, and actually shifts culture.

In a world where leaders are navigating constant change and employees are running on fumes, recognition isn't a "nice-to-have." It's a leadership strategy. A trust-builder. A performance enhancer. And if you're not doing it right, you're leaving impact—and morale—on the table.

🧠 In this episode, we break down:

- Why timely, specific praise matters more than ever

- The dangers of only recognizing results (spoiler: you reinforce burnout)

- How to tie recognition to culture and purpose

- A simple 4-part framework for making recognition a habit, not a one-off

- Real-world stories of what happens when leaders finally get this right

Whether you're leading a scrappy startup or a global team, this conversation will help you rethink how you show appreciation—and how to do it in a way that actually works.

🎧 Tune in and learn how to:

✅ Recognize effort, not just output

✅ Reinforce the behaviors you want to see more of

✅ Build a team culture where people feel seen—and stay engaged

👉🏽 Because recognition isn’t fluffy. It’s how you lead through chaos with clarity, empathy, and impact.
