Recognition can be so much more than, "Hey, great job" or a once-a-quarter performance review. Companies that choose to invest in employee engagement reap the rewards on everything from an improved culture to increased revenue. So let's get recognizing!
Disengaged employees cost the U.S. economy $550 billion annually. Recognition increases engagement by 2x. Even if you don't like math, it's easy to see recognition is worth the investment.
Awardco has everything you need to recognize and reward your employees. Our software is easy to use and we can help you customize programs to your needs, whether you have 1,000 employees or over 100,000.
Want to create and manage multiple recognition programs from one dashboard? We can do that. Need to create custom rewards catalogs to specific programs? Yup, we can do that too—all with the power of one simple, rewarding platform.
Adding another software to your processes can be daunting. That’s why we made something that is intuitive for admins and users. Plus, we're here to help the entire way. We want to simplify the recognition process so more people get recognized for the work they do every day.
Choose who you want to recognize. You can recognize one person or multiple people at a time—whatever floats your boat.
Choose what you want to recognize them for. Do they exemplify a specific company value? Are they killing it in a specific area? Tag a specific Smart Network, program, or company value to let them know.
Tell them specifically why you're recognizing them. Recognitions can have point values attached or not—and let's face it: "thank you" is free, right?
Not only does recognition inspire individuals, it helps build a company culture of people who care (try saying that ten times fast).
On the public feed teammates can like, comment, and react to recognition. Stay connected while working remotely—no matter where in the world your employees are.
If anyone on your team isn't interested in being recognized publicly, set up private recognitions so everyone is recognized in the way that makes them feel the most appreciated. Not everybody loves a public recognition, and we get that.
Recognizing employees drives engagement more than anything else (including that super expensive yearly employee summit that you spend thousands on each year). It creates a cycle of recognition and increased productivity that builds and grows into a powerful engine.
As employees feel valued, they will want to give more value back. In fact, 40% of employed Americans would put more energy into their work if they were recognized more often, and with that kind of return on something that takes so little effort, why would you not recognize?
Show your people how much you value them and watch as they continuously give more value back.
Awardco connects you with your teams wherever they are to bolster support, encourage social recognition, strengthen work from home programs, and more. There is no substitute for human connection, even if that connection is virtual.
Awardco integrates with your existing communication tools (like Slack or Microsoft Teams) to boost program adoption and visibility. You can watch the recognitions come through in real time on your feed. But watch out: watching them come through can be addicting. We know, because it happens to us all the time.
