Share these views with all of your employees, not just your number one, right hand. Be open, be raw and even show your vulnerable side.
I believe that appreciation comes from understanding. Let me be clear, your mission and vision statements are great, but impact comes from verbally communicating your mission (reason for existing) and vision (direction for success) from your heart and not repeating the mission and vision statements over and over again and plastering it on your walls and website.
Lastly, get their input. Brainstorm with them. Tell them what you are working on for the success of the business and get their input. Employees who feel included will naturally want to be loyal to you.
What I have explained is more of a macro point of view, but transparency can happen throughout the entire business, both as a whole and separated in departments where a manager shares their views and asks the team for their input.
Like I said, the motivators explained at the beginning of this article are all great and can still be incorporated, but without transparent communication, all of your other efforts may fall flat.
