Archived Team Member of the Month Awards

[TallAPGuy]

How many other stores have started giving out this award all of the sudden?

 

[EchoFoxtrot]

awards? You mean just being tm of the month? Our store has done that for years. I heard from a transfer they gave out a $10 gift card for it at their last store but not the one I'm at... but not sure about awards? Odd word to use for that.

We have aleays done it. You get a plaque.

We do a ‘You Make Target TM of the month” which is basically best TM. You just get your picture up with a message in the TSC. We also have ‘Safety hero of the month’ which is normally given to someone in flow who works really clean or someone in the back room who actually clears fire exits. Just a picture and message in the TSC as well. Just recently this month they also started doing ‘business owner of the month’ which is a weird name but it’s basically just TL of the month.

We had a couple TM's of the month who were NCNS so apparently anyone can get it.

Our store has done it for years if your an etl favorite then you get a giftcard if your not you get a picture and paragraph.

 

[GlitterBerries]

Our store did that for 2 months about a year ago and it was never heard from again lol

 

[FlowTeamChick]

We do it off and on and have for years. Not sure why it goes away sometimes for months and then returns for a while.

Monthly pictures and paragraphs of TMs at my store as well; based off nominations done by TLs. BUT..... I just found out that we DO give out a Gift Card once a month! The GC winner is "randomly" drawn from the pool of Guest Comment Cards for the month.

I have gotten some of these over the years. They change the name of it every few years. I kept the award write ups. Mostly just to see how bad the spelling is of the hr etls. I know on here I have made spelling errors, but if what I write is going to be an "award" for someone I think I would send it through spell check....

 

[squirrely]

My store has been doing them for about two years.

 

[pellinore]

We're in year four of the plaques....all that happens is that your name gets added.....such a waste.

 

[BeautyGirl]

My store just started doing this again in January. If you get it, they put a very small piece of paper in TSC congratulating you and no one notices. Didn't even know about it myself until my friend got it. And the reward is them buying you something of your choice off of bullseye shop.

 

[Cee Low]

We've been doing it for 10+ years. If you're a regular TM it's round robin.

Maybe the Recognition/Award cycle comes and goes, based on the emphasis that Leadership puts on it. However, now that we're getting particularly close to Best Team Survey...... we want to make sure the Team feels all "warm and fuzzy" from Recognition.
