[note color=”#B6D6F0″]A wise man who hired me once told me, “I will never ask you to do a thing I wouldn’t do.”
If you ask people to scrub floors with toothbrushes, let them see you doing the exact same thing sometimes. Do the dirty work with them. You’re not so important that you can’t ever do your employee’s job.
Do it, but don’t get in the way. You’re only a tourist, but a visitor can empathize better than someone who’s never been there.[/note]
Other ways include:
• Let them know you appreciate them
• Ask them what they need
• Give a small gift
• Give a bonus
