Motivating Your Staff with Positive Notes

My Center Director and Assistant Director are reading a Book titled For by Jeff Henderson. The forward is written by one of my mentors, John Maxwell.

This book has helped us to stay focused on who we are for and it also has given us fresh insight on how to build a positive culture.

In chapter 11 Jeff talked about how he wrote three thank you notes a day five days a week to motivate his staff. Then he ended the chapter with this note: ” A person who feels appreciated will always do more than expected.”

Wow! So I took Jeff advice and left done sticky notes on some classroom doors for the lead teachers to read and I. return someone left a Sticky note on my office door. It was a great feeling to see that note and it truly inspired me.

I hope that you have been inspired to motivate your team and boost the morale in your child care business.

How to Stop Gossip In Your Child Care Business

gossip

Earlier this week I posted a question on the Child Care Business Owner page. The question was as follows: Describe your top challenges that you are having with employees. One of the Center Owners indicated that she was having issues with gossip.

Seven years ago this was an issue in my Child Care Center. In fact, I wrestled with the issue for about a year. As I grew as a Leader and began to promote a positive workplace, and got rid of the bad apples; I no longer have the issue of Gossip!

Gossip will ruin your business if you don’t get it under control!

I’m not saying that you can totally eliminate Gossip, however, I am saying that you can start by promoting a positive work with some preventive measures  and by implementing a few simple employee management strategies.
