The Power of Gratitude to Boost Morale

The Power of Gratitude to Boost Morale

Why you should always say thank you for other people’s hard work

Dear Emily Designs was approached by Bright Events Ltd to create a memorable thank you gift for their hard-working staff after the successful delivery of a complex event attended by over 15,000 people.

“I wanted to express my sincere appreciation for the help I received from some key individuals during this project. Their expertise and support were crucial in making it a success.”

 

The Client: Bright Events Ltd

Bright Events Ltd is a small events business based in Staffordshire.  Their team played a crucial role in the delivery of “Plantworx”, an event that took place in Peterborough.

With a combination of live demonstrations and the latest in machine technology and support products, Plantworx offers a valuable experience for construction sector professionals.  It is a complex event with 300 exhibitors in attendance and approximately 15,000 visitors over the three days.  A group of dedicated people worked long and hard to complete the project.

Karen Edwards from Bright Events Ltd recognised the importance of her support team and the work they do by taking the time to thank staff, personally, post event.
