We’ve written before about what you can say to make employee recognition awards meaningful. There are lots of options, but sometimes the biggest boosts to employee morale aren’t exactly work related. Instead, you might want to take a step back and think about some funny categories to honour the ‘Snack Stash Champion’, or the resident ‘Spreadsheet Sorcerer’. But why does highlighting these humourous office tropes work?
Boosts Morale
Recognising employees with humour makes everyone feel appreciated in a low-pressure way. Whether recognised for their skills, habits, or quirks, funny award trophies remind them that their contributions and personalities are valued.
Memorable Moments
Workplace awards that are funny give the team something to laugh about together, and to look forward to next year!
Team Bonding
Sharing insides jokes builds camaraderie, and you can even get the whole team involvd with category suggestions or nominations.
In this post, we’ll offer practical tips for getting a great custom trophy design and provide creative examples of humourous awards for employees to spark your imagination.
