Appreciation means a favorable opinion of something
When you appreciate a person for an act that he / she performed that was to the good of you and the whole setup, you are actually encouraging this person to do more. You also convey the message that you are in favor of the same act.
However, there are some bosses who always want to withhold from appreciating an effort of the individual.My reasoning has been that by tabling some words of appreciation, the boss feels he will be considered too easy ! But then arent you actually preventing the team member from better performance. There are some people, who actually appreciate work but with a caveat. "Good Job. I am happy that your performance post our discussions have been considerably better". How in the world do you think that the recepient of this mail is going to be happy on this meant-to-be-appreciation?
As Managers be lavish in appreciating an effort of a person, it will only create the thirst in the employee to work better. The simple logic is that humans always thirst to do more and words of appreciation will just push the man to do better.
