Why build nomination programs?

Drive engagement and performance

Peer recognition moments matter. These are the stories that stick. Culture shifts when nomination is inclusive, expectations are clear, and decisions are backed by data, not bias.

Easily execute better strategies

Award nomination programs lose impact without the right tools. Streamline workflows, set custom criteria, and automate communication to scale recognition without the administrative burden.

Testimonials

What our customers say

We love to catch our team members doing great things! They can’t pour into others from an empty cup. That’s why we invest in recognition and take the time to celebrate our people.

Sarah Mazzocco

Chief People Officer

There are many ways to define Americare’s culture, but at its foundation it has always been about recognition, recognition for our employees and for each other. We’ve built that into so many of our programs and systems.

Pat Cokingtin

Senior VP of Sales & Marketing

Recognition is powerful. When you recognize someone, you feel just as good as when you’re being recognized. The Awardco feed is my ‘positive scroll.’ It lifts everyone’s spirits.

Tisa Penny

Engagement & Events Lead, 2025 Recognition Rockstar Winner

I love how simple Awardco is to use, both the main platform and the admin side, with how many reporting features it has to offer.

When people join Americare, we want them to feel like they're part of something bigger than just a job, that it's part of having purpose because they get to make a difference in residents' lives.

Mary Eaves

Senior VP of Operations (Assisted Living Division)

Caregivers want more than a paycheck—they want to feel valued. Recognition makes that possible.

Sarah Mazzocco

Chief People Officer

When I joined Lockton, we didn’t have a recognition platform. It was the first thing I pushed for—because I’ve seen firsthand how important it is. People want to feel seen and validated.

Selia Wood

AVP, Talent & Engagement

We use recognition as a tool to motivate and encourage our employees—everyone knows Awardco because we actively use it for any and all incentives for employees.
