KUDOS – Discovering Fulfillment
Posted by Herman Najoli on May 21, 2009
A few days ago I was floored when someone sent an email to someone else to pass along some kudos for me. This is a rare word so I went home and developed a KUDOS formula for encouraging others. Here’s the KUDOS formula:
K – Keep your focus on finding acts worthy of encouragement in your people.
U – Underscore the vital necessity of a climate and culture of encouragement.
D – Discover the 101% principle (Find the 1 thing someone is good at and give 100% encouragement in this area.
O – Outline your expectations, knowing that people soar higher once encouraged.
S – Seek to encourage with a desire for the other person’s benefit, not your own.
