UHR|Connect October 2017 Vol. 3 No. 10 2017 Faculty & Staff Convocation: UHR’s very own Willie Brown
Appreciation is a fundamental human need. Employees respond to appreciation expressed through recognition of their good work because it confirms that their work is valued. When employees and their work are valued, their satisfaction and productivity rises, and they are motivated to maintain and/or improve their good work. Many of our UMD colleagues were recognized for their accomplishments at this year’s Faculty & Staff Convocation.
