The vast majority of managers I've encountered only focus on the stuff that is wrong, or was done poorly. The ROI on a simple "attaboy" is huge, especially when done in a group environment.
In our morning meetings, people update their status on the work they're doing. Even a simple "nice!" when warranted goes a long way, making them feel good in front of the group, and giving them a nice attitude for the rest of the day.
