Employees who are thanked for a job well done are more engaged, plus expressing gratitude to others makes us happier.
Most of us learned to say thank you at an early age. Our parents, caregivers, elementary school teachers, and other adults would often tack on a “what do you say?” after we received something. While the drills should make saying thanks an almost involuntary response in any situation where you are the recipient, an expression of gratitude—especially at work—can be hard to come by.
