Hi Conrad,

I think the easiest and best way to show your appreciation is to take your
sysadmins out to lunch and tell them that you appreciate them. Ask their
opinions on how things are going, listen to what they say and consider it,
even if you can't ultimately take their suggestions.

If there are enough teams that you can't take them all to lunch, just
sending an email to remind them that you know they exist and appreciate
what they do, then offer to listen to their concerns or suggestions.
Everyone wants to know that they're valued.
