In this episode, I interview Peggy from the Colorado Housing and Finance Authority in Denver, Colorado. She was one of the originators of their employee recognition awards using a Garden Gnome and I wanted to get the inside scoop of this practice and it’s results.
The bottom line is that outstanding employees are given the Garden Gnome to put on their desks. And then the Gnome travels to other desks every couple of months.
The result is super positive, very fun, and very funny. Looking to add some humor to your workplace and don’t know where to start? Then you’ll love this podcast.
More about my work with humor and the workplace, seminars and keynote speeches here.
Cheers!
