Celebrate!: Celebrate! Giving: Give Your Staff a Hand

I will always remember the "clickity clack" sound ring out through the office followed by a huge smile on the face of my resident assistants. When you work in Residence Life on a college campus, you often have a small budget, which gives you the opportunity to 'get creative' when trying to encourage your student staff who work countless hours at a sometimes thankless job. While at a party store, I came across these hand clappers and it seemed like a perfect way to give them the 'round of applause' they deserved. I tied a note on the hand thanking them for a job well done. You would be surprised at how a simple act of recognition can make a team member feel appreciated...and you don't have to spend an arm and a leg...just give them a hand!
