Abstract

Explains that the first step in getting positive reinforcement from your boss is to realize that you want and need it. Next, thought needs to be given regarding how and why your boss withholds positive reinforcement. Now you are ready to meet with your boss, ask for more positive reinforcement, cite examples of when he/she has given it and how it benefits both parties. End by giving him/her positive reinforcement for discussing this with you.
