We are excited to announce today that Decision Toolbox, a leading provider of recruitment solutions, is now part of the Engage2Excel family of companies. This announcement represents an important next step in our strategy to help organizations attract, hire, motivate and retain highly engaged employees. The acquisition complements our existing HR solutions for employee recognition and surveys and significantly expands the capabilities of our Talent Acquisition division, launched in July.

Companies have been recognizing employees for their length of service since the late 1800s. Today these programs, which are utilized by 90% of Best Practice organizations, aren’t just limited to recognition of service anniversaries.

In a previous post “Make Your Employee Onboarding an Engaging Success” I shared the strategy behind why onboarding programs are necessary.  In this post, I am taking those strategies and listing six tips to make onboarding effective in your organization.

The technological advancements in recognition software are being adopted by HR teams across the world.  With the HR role stretched to included more and more responsibilities, this group is looking for ways to automate and assist with recognition initiatives and other strategic endeavors. From a simple system that sends out an email to a manager alerting them an employee is celebrating an anniversary next month to a complex system to support budgets with a tiered hierarchy, these tools are a way to complement and support the organization’s recognition strategies, not hinder or replace human communication.
