Recognition can do more than just drive performance and engagement. It can encourage deep collaboration and drive innovation. With just 10 percent of organizations believing they are doing an adequate job of encouraging innovation, there is plenty of room for improvement.
Designing a program that engages your employees while motivating them to achieve organizational goals and initiatives should not be difficult.
Through experience, we’ve determined the best recognition strategy includes a program design process that is broken out into five phases. These steps provide organizations the opportunity to ensure all necessary program attributes are considered, and the best recognition solution is delivered:
Why do many companies spend months developing and rolling out a recognition program, only to find that they have very poor participation rates? Many point to what the program didn’t include.

We think it is important to make employees feel valued; it’s our business to help other organizations do just that. Each day we are witness to moments of great employee achievements – big and small - and see how recognition of those moments has a powerful impact.
