Your workforce or team doesn’t have to loathe meetings. While demanding and potentially draining, there are ways to improve the team’s outlook of meetings to help members get just a little more excited about meeting. One such idea that can completely change your team’s view of meetings and help you get off on a positive note is icebreaker games. The following are 20 common games to consider for your next meeting.

Long-standing loyalty should always be recognized. If you have a long-time employee who is retiring, it's time to celebrate their service to you. Good work ethic deserves recognition. And nothing says recognition like presenting thoughtfully worded awards to herald an employee's positive contributions to your company. Able Recognition Awards puts the spotlight on those hardworking people who have represented your brand and your values well.

This is the perfect time to recognize those who have contributed to your organization's success. You can include business partners, major shareholders, sponsors, top customers and others who are integral to your company's ability to thrive. A custom award is a great way to thank these important people for their contributions and encourage them to stick with you into the future. 

Rewarding someone for a job well done is a good way to thank someone whose performance exceeds your expectations. Whether it’s an individual or the whole company, any one of these gifts might be the perfect way to recognize and reward them.
