This is really something that you need to understand and go out of your way to do at every chance possible. A lot of employees need to be told they are doing a good job, and thank you.

I have had to struggle with it over the years to be more vocal, and take time to go up to them and say "good job" personally. Not just in an email. This is BY FAR one of the most overlooked things in my opinion. Pay raises are nice, but many people, especially women, need praise.

So you need to take that extra 30 seconds to tell them, 'thank you', or to compliment them on something you really liked or they surprised you on. This keeps them motivated, and appreciative.

Same can be said for models.
