Social recognition is the act of publicly acknowledging your people for who they are and what they do. Social recognition puts the power of gratitude to work, aligning your people and culture with a shared purpose. The key to achieving a culture of gratitude is the correct reach, frequency, and value.
A consistent stream of positive interactions fuels unparalleled, provocative human insights and draws on your entire organization as a community – unlocking human potential and motivating people to do the best work of their lives. The data proves it, again and again.
Traditional employee recognition consisted of managers giving their employees tactical forms of rewards – like pins or watches – for simply sticking around. In the days of lifelong employment and strict organizational hierarchies, that may have worked. But today’s employees want purpose, mastery, and empowerment – not a pen with a company logo on it.
Making work more human through social recognition drives business results by capturing, amplifying, and echoing recognition moments across the organization.
