How to Improve Rewards & Recognition

 
 
“Modern recognition with Awardco has created an ecosystem of appreciation. What we’ve found, as employees have recognised each other, is that they’re motivated long term. Employees want to enjoy their work and be successful, and if we recognise them for their success, they’ll know they’re doing a great job and can improve every single day.”

When you have employees working hard from home juggling family responsibilities, and yet still being physically separate from their team, a simple birthday message and gift they get to pick out creates a meaningful touchpoint, and allows them to take a moment for themselves.

Awardco is central to our strategy around helping people feel connected across the organisation in the work that they do. Our strength is that we have diversity across all our offices. So collaboration may be the soul of a layer group, that tie that binds our unique cultures together. But we really want to celebrate and recognise the diversity across our offices, and that is our strength. Awardco helps us create that visible platform for everybody to see the good work and the unique ways that people are solving problems around the organisation.

Since joining, I’ve found myKudos [Awardco] posts to be a great way to learn what others are doing across the agency. I’ve even picked up ideas from shoutouts that I’ve been able to implement on my own accounts. It’s more than recognition—it’s a source of inspiration.

How do we better recognise our associates on the day to day? One of our engagement survey questions is, 'In the last seven days, have you been recognised for doing good work?' Awardco really allows us to to do that and to do a better job of that.
