Do you believe in participation trophies? While I understand the arguments that participation ribbons and trophies provide a sense of accomplishment and motivation, I feel giving a trophy simply for participating undermine the value of competition and hard work. I mean, doesn’t a trophy merely for participating (aka minimal effort) essentially foster a sense of entitlement? I also wonder how this participation trophy-for-everyone approach might impact us later as adults… I’m curious – what are your thoughts on participation trophies? What is your approach when it comes to recognition and rewards for your employees or even your kids? Share below! #recognition #participationawards
As I am 10 weeks away from running the marathon (eeek!) I wanted to share this article I wrote last year about how doing just the basics on recognition can have a big impact and as we say at Achievers 'Whats get recognised, get's repeated" #thanks #recognition #employeeengagement

Story 201- Broken cup As a child, I was a jack of all trades. Whether it was sports, extracurricular activities, or studies, I was always near the top but never quite at the pinnacle. I would often place third, fourth, or at best, second. In 11th grade, my mother issued a challenge that would change my life. She asked me, "When will you bring home a cup instead of medals or certificates?" To emphasize the point, she placed a broken teacup in our drawing room and told me that until I replaced it with a trophy, it would remain there. This target sparked something in me. I began to work harder in both sports and studies, driven by the desire to replace that broken cup. However, despite my efforts, I didn’t achieve any significant victories in 12th grade. But things took a turn when I enrolled at BIT MESRA . Determined to make a change, I started participating more actively in sports and soon began to win trophies. One by one, I replaced the broken teacups in our drawing room with the hard-earned trophies. Each cup I replaced was a testament to my dedication and perseverance. Now, those trophies stand proudly where the broken cups once were, a symbol of my journey and achievements. My take -1. I've learned the importance of setting tangible goals. 2. Having a physical representation of your target, something you see every day, can be a powerful motivator. It constantly reminds you of what you're striving for and pushes you to achieve your best.

Schools attended, participation in sports, people who are listed who you may know, awards, accolades, endorsements, prior companies worked for etc.
If success is measured only by the scoreboard, youth sport can become a hollow pursuit. Instead, if we celebrate impeccable sportsmanship, actively promote respect for opponents & officials, champion the value of discipline, perseverance & courage, provide players with hope & belief in the face of adversity & above all strive to build people before players, we will always be on the winning team, irrelevant of what a scoreboard says. While this weekends performances were not quite perfect, the way in which our players conducted themselves in challenging environments was. New week. New opportunities. New belief. We move… ___ #SSCPride
