Our Regional Vice Presidents take these cards [AwardCodes] to the General Managers conference, enabling them to award GMs on the spot for their exceptional contributions.

We wanted to make recognition easy and exciting for our blue collar workers to participate in, and Awardco's capabilities have made that possible.

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

myKudos [Awardco] has been a powerful tool in fostering a culture of appreciation within our craft. By providing an easy, visible way to celebrate all wins, both big and small. It helps boost morale and the impact is immediately felt.

I really enjoyed the personalized interactions with the Awardco team—from our CSM to our Implementation Specliast...everyone has been supportive, customer cenric, and easy to partner with.

The emphasis that Kodiak puts on people and employees first is really unique. We're always looking for opportunities to acknowledge the important and special and above and beyond work that our coworkers are doing.

Before Awardco we had no idea how many gift cards were going out or when, but now we have real-time budgetary updates. It's been a game changer.

Awardco has made a big difference at our Sunnyvale location, specifically the different programs they've been able to create. They have a tenure recognition program, an employee of the month program, a birthday recognition program, and Sunnyvale has also created a safety bingo.

Often, you're on the road for an entire shift, and you may not necessarily interact with a lot of other colleagues… And so being recognized helps you feel more connected with the team.

One of the best parts of myKudos [Awardco] is seeing others rally around a recognition post—commenting, reacting, and adding to the praise. I love scrolling through the kudos channel and seeing teammates from other accounts getting hyped up for the great work they’re doing. It really creates a sense of community across the agency.

Every year, we encourage our associates to go get their annual physical. If you turn [a] form in, you get Awardco points. It's another way to tie healthy lifestyle to what's important to us in the bank to making an impact with our associates.

We've tied rewards to wellness in the sense that every year, we encourage our associates to go get their annual physical. If they show proof, they get points. It's another way to tie healthy lifestyles to what's important to us in the bank, making an impact with our associates.

I love the social aspect of the platform—seeing how others are being recognize and rewarded inspires me to give more awards myself.

We now have complete visibility into budgetary usage and recognitions. Before, nobody could see recognitions at all—it was always done on a small scale, one-on-one from manager to employee. Now everyone in the company can see the successes of others and celebrate those with them, and we can see how managers are using the funds we've given them. Our budgets have equalized almost entirely—down to the dollar.

With the rollout of Awardco last fall, Lockton has made recognizing others easier, more meaningful, and way more fun. I am HONORED (and blown away!) to be named one of the top recognition recipients since we launched the platform! This isn’t just an award — it’s a reflection of the incredible people I get to work with every day.
