The last post in this series was contributed by a proud winner of the first bizarro ugly block award.  I am sure there are some contenders for the title on this planet, but there were none who cared to compete for the title.  If you have something ridiculous in mind, I can help.  For a worse look at this picture, click on the image.

This week in creating and presenting digital awards, a contractor reported using one of our award designs to make a tongue-in-cheek presentation to a co-worker at a client site. Leaving out the names of those who pulled off this act, the idea was to present a very nice looking Certificate of Merit for maintaining focus despite changing project directives and ongoing customer whimsy.

The crafted award was presented to the recipient via email, and everyone got a good laugh about the humorous and elaborate looking presentation.  Later on, the same person later received a legitimate award from her manager in recognition for ten years service with the company.  In a side conversation, the contractor whispered, “Let me know if that award is as good as the one you got earlier…”  More laughs followed and the honored employee responded, “OK, I will…that one was awesome!”

If your organization is looking for ways to boost recognition, or just lighten the load with a few laughs, you might want to consider the benefit of creating your memorable moments from digital designs.  Rich looking designs add attention getting details that are expensive to produce in real materials.  Another example of a valuable virtual award comes from a former member of Toastmasters International.  While attending meetings and honing their speaking skills, the person suggested that the local club should trade in the plastic trophy they passed around each week, and award an inexpensive “virtual” award that could be produced and presented with the winning weekly speaker’s name and the date written on the plaque.  This provided a way to recognize top speakers and give them something they could keep to commemorate their performances.

People appreciate receiving the level of recognition an award presentation represents, even if it is done for no other reason than to create a few laughs.  Digital techniques make it possible to offer recognition more often and regularly than waiting for a ten year work anniversary to roll around.  Who do you want to recognize with your own award presentations?  Consider letting us help you get it done right.
