25 Examples of Employee Appreciation and Recognition Messages

As an executive leadership coach, I am a passionate advocate for honoring the people who work hard, persevere, and show dedication and loyalty. I truly believe that these qualities deserve recognition and appreciation. Therefore, I always encourage my clients to write handwritten notes to their best performers and show them the recognition and appreciation they deserve.

Here are some examples of appreciation and recognition messages that I have written in the past few years to assist my leadership clients.

Dear Leaders, feel free to use these ideas within your organization:

  1. “Your hard work and dedication are truly appreciated. Thank you for all that you do!”
  2. “We are so grateful to have you as part of our team. Thank you for your contributions!”
  3. “Your efforts have not gone unnoticed. Thank you for always giving your best!”
  4. “You are a valuable asset to our team. Thank you for your talent and commitment!”
  5. “Your positive attitude and willingness to help make a huge difference. Thank you!”
