Q : Do you think commendations are necessary to keep employees motivated? Why or why not? A : Yes, I do. In Korea, there is a sentence "The commendation make whales dancing" which means commendations are very important to motivate someone. So, I think commendations are necessary to keep employees motivated. However, not only commendations but also rewards are necessary. If I heard commendations from manager but don't get rewards, I wouldn't be motivated.

Hi Eddy,
Thank you for taking the time to answer this essay. :)
I'm with you on this! A commendation without a monetary reward wouldn’t motivate me either.
I hope you receive a commendation with a monetary reward this month! :)
Enjoy your summer vacation. I’ll see you in our next class. Stay safe!~
