Honor the individual without creating embarrassment or anxiety. Sometimes a word, or a note has GREAT impact.

Encouraging

Your words or actions should inspire the individual to repeat the behaviors you appreciate.

Accurate

Be specific! Use words that accurately and descriptively express what they've done that you appreciate.

Timely

Don't Delay! Expressing appreciation immediately shows that you're paying attention, that their actions matter, that they make a difference.
