a new vision for years of service milestones
TRANSCRIPT
We all think we know what Service Anniversaries are. Our pre-conceived expectations have
put milestones into a box. One with a gold embossed, engraved cover, which rarely gets
opened. Have you ever thought about what milestone awards could be if we lifted that limited
definition and really imagined the possibilities?
Service milestones have become about thanking someone for not quitting. But think about it.
They could be an opportunity to celebrate, inspire, increase satisfaction and happiness, and
strengthen ties among workers in your company.
There is a revolution happening in service anniversaries. Are you prepared for it?
Imagine a whole new approach to milestones…
My anniversary was a moment for me to stop
and reevaluate my job and career and the
relationships I’ve built here. If I were offered
my job again today, I’d accept it. My milestone
experience made me recommit to my company.
Milestones can renew your contract with your employees.
I’D ACCEPT THE JOB ALL OVER AGAIN.
I LOVE YOU GUYS.
When my coworkers came together to share
my milestone-experience, I realized that my life
would be a lot less rich without them. I spend
half of my life here. It’s a great feeling to know
that you really belong.
Milestones can be about celebrating your work community.
REAL PRIDE OF WORK.
My work anniversary included a retrospective of
my achievements. I was so amazed and proud
to see all of my recognition accomplishments in
one place. I’ve revisited it a few times now and
even shared it with my family.
Milestones can build an employee’s confidence and pride.
I used my anniversary reward to buy a new
bicycle I’ve had my eye on. Every time I hit the
open road I think about what a great company
I work for. This was the perfect gift for me,
because I chose it.
Milestones can show how much you value a worker as an individual.
MY OWN NIRVANA.
My service award experience helped me to see
exactly how important I am to this community
and the work we do. It was my own ‘It’s a
Wonderful Life’ moment. I suddenly had all this
insight into the real contribution I have made
over the years. It was powerful.
Milestones can create a sense of achievement and meaning.
I’VE MADE A DIFFERENCE.
I didn’t realize how much I’ve put down roots
here. When my co-workers started sharing those
stories, the memories came flooding back and
I got tears in my eyes even as I was laughing.
I could never leave this place.
Milestones can reinforce an employee’s emotional commitment.
THE AMAZING POWER OF MEMORY.
It was so easy to contribute a story to my co-
worker’s Service Timeline. I got a reminder that
helped me to not forget and it was really simple to
put up a message. While I was composing it,
and then reading what others wrote, I got a bit
choked up. I was really reminded me what a
great place this is to work. I can’t wait for my
next milestone.
Milestones can have a huge impact on everyone who reads them.
IT WASN’T EVEN MY ANNIVERSARY.
I’M ON TOP OF THE WORLD.
I got my service award while I was on a project
in Tibet. It was amazing that my co-workers
could reach out from all around the world and
suddenly make me feel surrounded by their
love and appreciation. The power of technology
is amazing.
Milestones can use technology to connect everyone, everywhere.
Service awards have tremendous power to highlight and reinforce the
connections that make our companies strong. Our employees are all part of
a mosaic of commitment, energy and emotion—supporting, inspiring and
driving one another toward success.
The service anniversary should never be a simple pat on the back and thanks
for the past. It should be a moment of reflection and a recommitment for the
future. It should be an acknowledgement that together we have accomplished
much, and together we will go on to accomplish so much more. It should
be an invitation to remain with your company and with your community and
continue that record of success.
How we think about service awards has changed forever.
Are you making the most of yours?
Expand beyond the manager.
Bring together an entire community of colleagues.
Create a rich, memorable, personal experience.
Reflect on the years of valuable contribution.
Offer a meaningful and limitless reward choice.
Automate processes to ensure no one is forgotten.
Integrate into the broader social recognition experience.
INTRODUCING SERVICE TIMELINES FROM GLOBOFORCEService Timelines is not a years of service
award. It is a revolutionary milestone
celebration experience.

your employees’ work circles, you can

values through shared stories, images

not on a catalog, but on what will be
most meaningful for your employee.
