“People work for money but go the extra mile for recognition, praise and rewards.”
The late Dale Carnegie once said that, and he was well-known as a pioneer in corporate training programs. Carnegie was also the genius inventor of developing courses worldwide in self-improvement, public speaking and more. Every organization fares better when its members feel valued and are thanked for their service and loyalty, and when it comes to showing appreciation, certain award types make exquisite keepsakes.
The Gold Standard
There are a number of good award options available when your organization wants to praise its employees. There are plaques and trophies one can display in their home or at their desk. Some people receive small medals or written citations that are framed, etc.
Today’s gold standard in employee recognition goes to beautiful glass awards. Hands down, this is one of the loveliest and most natural, abundant materials sourced from nature. It’s no secret that humans are attracted to glass and the amazing things that can be made with it.
Glass is a solid form and appealing from every angle, and when it is custom-made for praising and recognizing your employees, it’s quite a remarkable symbol. Not only would your recipients enjoy having this wonderful award but holding it in their hands and looking at its beauty is something else.
Simple and Sophisticated
When an organization or business chooses glass to award employees or members, they select an awesome trophy type. Glass is timeless and never out of fashion. It looks expensive and polished, so to speak. It’s classy to say, “We appreciate your service, hard work or loyalty, etc.”
Glass is worth the investment because you can get extra creative in your desired design. The expert craftsmanship you expect can be achieved with glass and its versatility as a medium. You can play a unique role in the shape and specifications of awards tailored to your organization. You can also have the awards personalized with an inscription, and your recipients will appreciate the details and special touches you have added.
Artistic Design Shapes
Not only is glass (and crystal, too) handsome in all of its simplicity and solidity but it can be made into some spectacular shapes that add elegance and meaning to an award and stand out in any space they are used for display.
For instance, imagine handing your organization’s members a diamond crystal award that dazzles the eyes and represents the pinnacle of achievement. Choosing from various coloured crystals such as red, purple, green and blue makes this souvenir even more special.
Or how about selecting a design with a majestic eagle perched upon a rock made out of stunning crystal on a smooth black base?
A star-shaped award is another exceptional symbol often given to those members or employees who have gone above and beyond. A shooting star award with an individual’s name and company logo displayed upon it, for example, is just one idea that looks gorgeous no matter where you place the award and will surely become a noteworthy piece in their possession.
And Super Eco-Friendly
Another aspect in choosing awards made of glass to recognize employees or members of an organization is its incredible environmental factors. Glass is “endlessly recyclable”, according to the science and experts who work with it. For example, glass is made from natural materials such as limestone, sand and soda ash.
Not only that but glass can be used over and over again without losing its initial quality and other positive features. It is fantastic for the environment, and many people appreciate materials and things that do not harm the world around them. By giving an award designed out of glass, you are being thoughtful to Planet Earth and doing your small part in striving for a better tomorrow.
It’s important to remember and appreciate your members or employees. By presenting a stunning award made of glass to them, you show that they matter and bring value to your organization and the mission ahead. Recognition is a great thing, and it’s much appreciated.
