Additionally, expressing appreciation for good work helps to build a work environment which is positive, motivating and engaging.

Being a manager in the 21st century is not at all a child's play. The work culture now demands the managers to lead the workforce by adopting multiple roles as a motivator, a mentor and a leader all at the same time. And one of the most important aspects of these roles is the ability and the will to deliver constructive feedback to the employees. Feedbacks are an integral part of ensuring an efficient work culture.
