Earning the Recognition You Deserve

Are you being recognized by management and other staff members for your accomplishments? Are you happy with the level of recognition that you're receiving?

OfficeTeam collaborated with the International Association of Administrative Professionals® to understand how administrative staff and executives view employee recognition, and to gain insight into rewards administrative professionals value most.

Here are some highlights from the research:

  • Forty-two percent of support staff said their supervisor fails to recognize them even on Administrative Professionals Day®. and one-third of respondents reported that they receive "not enough" or no recognition throughout the year.
  • Two-thirds of administrative professionals would leave their current position if they did not feel appreciated by their manager.
  • More than 70 percent of support staff said that an organization's recognition programs would factor into their decision to accept employment with that firm.
  • Twenty-five percent of managers surveyed said they never ask employees if they are satisfied with the recognition they receive.
  • Challenging assignments and a feeling of accomplishment/satisfaction are top factors that motivate administrative professionals to do a good job.
  • Ninety-eight percent of administrative professionals said they praise colleagues for their achievements at least sometimes, and 88 percent do the same for their managers.
