Recognition Builds Stronger Teams – Lead with Praise

In The One Minute Manager by Kenneth Blanchard & Spencer Johnson, one powerful leadership principle stands out:

"Catch people doing something right."

It’s a simple, yet highly effective way to build better teams and boost performance. When you acknowledge and praise the good in others, you motivate them to keep growing and improve their impact. Strong leaders know: Recognition isn’t just nice—it’s essential.

What’s one thing you can praise a colleague for today? It could make a real difference.
