Managers with highly engaged employees deliver improved business outcomes, including increased retention, higher productivity rates and lower absenteeism.

With many leading HR organizations successfully integrating artificial intelligence (AI) technologies into recruiting processes, AI and machine learning are improving recognition experiences. Yet there are essential differences between the effective use of AI in recruiting and recognition. In recruiting, AI has proven most successful in helping decision-makers source, screen and evaluate large numbers of candidates. For managers, recognition is not a volume process but a personal expression of appreciation.

In today’s competitive job market, companies continually search for innovative ways to attract and retain top talent. In a webinar we conducted in partnership with Recognition Professionals International (RPI), one highly effective strategy is the power of recognition. By recognizing and valuing potential employees before they join the team, organizations significantly enhance their recruitment efforts, improve employee engagement and foster long-term loyalty.

During the season of thankfulness, it is important that we stop and reflect. In today's fast-paced business world, fostering a culture of gratitude is essential for creating a thriving workplace. Companies prioritizing employee satisfaction and expressing appreciation tend to experience higher productivity, lower turnover and a more positive work environment.

Employee recognition and rewards programs play a vital role in influencing the perceptions, attitudes and actions of employees. They are critical in creating a sense of belonging, motivating exceptional performance and enabling managers and peers to celebrate achievement, milestones and success.
