It all started with the participation trophies that were given just for showing up
My brother shared with me a story about my first participation trophy I received under the pavilion in York Fields
He said I never looked so confused because our team was terrible and just received a trophy
Here’s how I’ve seen it translate to the workplace.. now people want to be rewarded just for showing up and doing their job
If you show up on time... great you’re expected to
If you do your job... great you’re expected to
If you’re loyal to your job... great you’re expected to
Want to be rewarded and get a raise, promotion etc.. go above and beyond
