CREATE YOUR OWN AWESOMENESS GROUP IN 8 SIMPLE STEPS

So, you’ve decided to start your own Awesomeness group at your workplace?

Congratulations!! You will love it. In my experience, it is one of the best
tools you can use to build a great work culture of appreciation and recognition.
Not only that, but it’s super easy and fun to implement, while still delivering
great results.

If you’re still in the implementation stage but you’re not sure where to go from
here, follow these 8 simple steps to follow to create your own Awesomeness group
in less than 24 hours!

Curious about what the Awesomeness group is all about? Click here.

1. Identify The Facilitators

You cannot run the Awesomeness group on your own, especially if you are leading
the company or are the head of a department.

Rather than try it alone, designate one or two other people as the facilitators
for the group. A person who is lively and connects well with their coworkers is
always a good choice.

Your facilitators’ main work will be to keep the group buzzing and encourage
people to post, as well as oversee the weekly Spin the Wheel activity (more on
this later). If this work becomes too much for your group size or the number of
activities you hold, you can always designate more facilitators.

Just keep in mind that these facilitators should change out monthly or quarterly
(depending on the structure and needs of your organization). Motivation and
inspiration are not an endless ocean. They are a small pond. You need to keep
refilling the pond or it will dry out.

With your facilitators at your side, you can proceed to step 2.

2. Create The Group

Where you create the group does not matter. It can be Slack, WhatsApp, Telegram,
Skype, or even an internal platform. What matters is that everyone – across all
departments and all positions – is in a single group (or at least as many as you
can manage in one space).

3. Share With Everyone

Spread the word throughout the company about this new initiative and why you are
starting an Awesomeness group. Do this over a short call, so you can save all
your energy for the implementation process and make sure the experience of
participating in the Awesomeness group is as optimized as possible.

I have seen it repeatedly: when we launch something with a lot of planning and a
lot of elaborate presentations, talks, and processes, it consumes so much of our
energy that we experience a dull period post-launch.

This dull period will kill your Awesomeness group, so make sure you avoid it at
all costs. Save up all your time and efforts for implementation and running the
group, not pre-launch activities, and cut your sharing time down to a minimum.

4. Start Using The Group

After launching it with everyone in the company, it’s time to officially start
using your Awesomeness group to appreciate people daily.

You must be specific on why you are appreciating other people in the group. As
many people as possible should do this daily or at least every alternate day.

Consistency is key to training yourself to give specific feedback. You may say,
“I can’t see anything specific that’s worth appreciating every single day.” But
this is where the magic happens, for consistency will force you to look deeper.

Eventually, everyone will learn how to bring out the best in themselves and
those around them, even from obscurity. It will be like changing their
prescription lenses to one that fits them better, so they can see more clearly
than ever before.

Here are some examples of specific appreciation vs generic appreciation, which
you can share with your facilitators.

In the beginning, it will not be easy to get people to change how they word
their feedback. That’s why it’s important to lead by example and be consistent
over the weeks and months to come. Keep at it, and eventually you’ll see the
change happen.

5. Keep The Momentum Going

Running and participating in the Awesomeness group is a habit that will not come
naturally (read about the challenging start that our own Awesomeness group had
here). In the beginning, it will feel like only a few people are driving it and
not everyone is participating, but don’t be disheartened. You have no idea how
good the expressions of appreciation that are shared are making people feel.

We are all grown-ups, so we may not put it in words so much that we feel good
when someone thanks us. We may brush it off by saying, “It doesn’t matter
because I will do my best anyway.” But deep down, everyone looks for
appreciation and validation. The more we give it to them, the happier they are
and the more empowered they are to perform well at work.

To keep the momentum going, call out people who they appreciate their fellow
employees and thank them. You can even message people privately to express your
appreciation of them for the great things they’re saying and doing.

Your facilitators can carry these tasks out, as well as help you brainstorm
other ways to keep the positive words flowing among your coworkers..

6. Appreciate Across Levels

Encourage appreciation across all levels of the company, top-down and vice
versa. Your encouragement is necessary because some team members tend to
hesitate before appreciating their managers, or before saying anything to anyone
in a large group of people where all their coworkers are present.

Participation is important. But, if for any reason you have to make different
groups, my recommendation is not to make a group for each department or for
certain positions.

Choose your members from a random selection of people, so that you allow
everyone to see what their coworkers in other departments are doing. This cross
pollination is important because appreciation should not flow only from the top
down. It’s not like a unidirectional river. The currents should flow in all
directions and through all levels.

7 .Build The Fun And Excitement Weekly

This is a small but fun part of the Awesomeness group that adds a level of
excitement. Every week, put all the names of the people who were appreciated by
others on a list. Then, use an online software to randomly select a winner from
that list.

I recommend using a spin wheel interface, as it just adds a bit more fun and
makes it seem more like participating in a game show. There are many free online
versions of this type of software, but they all work the same way. Pick any that
you like; I enjoy this one because it’s easy to use.

To use the spin wheel, copy and paste the names from your list to the online
page. No matter how long your list is, a wheel will be generated. Click your
mouse to spin the wheel, and it will randomly choose a name which will be your
winner for the week. (Remember, if a person is appreciated more than once, put
their name on the wheel that many more times.)

Share a video of the spin wheel or the photo of the winner in the Awesomeness
group, so that everyone can congratulate them and celebrate their victory.

Go through this process every Monday morning, or whichever day is the first day
of the work week.

If you have a large Awesomeness group, you can always have more than one winner.
For example, on some weeks we hold a second spin wheel for people who gave
appreciation, in addition to the first one for those who received appreciation.
Sometimes, in my company, if there are too many names on the list, I do two
spins – one for the factory people and one for the office people.

8. Award The Winner And Share Their Moment

The winner needs to win something. I recommend you decide on a small token
amount which they can spend to buy anything online or on a website like Amazon.
Typically, Rs. 500 is a good amount; not too much, but not too little. They can
select what they like from the online store and tell the facilitator, who will
buy on their behalf and get it shipped directly to the winner’s doorstep.

When the winner receives their gift, ask them to take a photo of themselves with
it and share it with the Awesomeness group. This way, everyone else can
congratulate them and celebrate their happiness together.

Read number 10 in “10 Mistakes You Should Avoid for Your Awesomeness Group.” It
talks about why sharing photos is important.


CONCLUSION

If you follow the 8 steps I laid out in this article, you’ll have your
Awesomeness group up and running in a day or less. It may take a few weeks or
months for you to get the hang of running it. But knowing what challenges you’ll
face and how to solve them, as well as how to avoid expensive mistakes, will
help you along the way.
