In any meeting with more than ten people, I like to start with a recognition—highlighting what’s happening and what’s going well. Even in my executive meetings, I’ll share a recognition that stood out from one of the leaders. I enjoy leading with recognition, focusing on the positives rather than dwelling on what’s missing.

Awardco is not just a recognition tool—it’s a risk mitigation solution. Our tax and payroll teams love that we can now accurately track and report gifting, with proper IRS compliance.

When I personally received a High Flyer, it was amazing. Knowing that my efforts were appreciated—especially by senior management—meant a lot.

As a manager of a team of seven, I use High Flyer to recognize and thank my team each quarter. It makes them feel appreciated and motivated, knowing their efforts are seen.

Awardco checked all the boxes for us, from onboarding all the way up to senior leadership.

From the very beginning, I’ve said we’re going to organize the world’s incentive spend, bring people together, and create bridges of connection. The way the world works has completely changed over the last four years since COVID—people are more spread out, remote, and in hybrid environments. So, what’s the one thing that truly brings us together? Recognition.

Awardco allows everything to support our core values and our mission, which is very important to us because that strengthens our culture.

How do we better recognize our associates on the day to day? One of our engagement survey questions is, 'In the last seven days, have you been recognized for doing good work?' Awardco really allows us to to do that and to do a better job of that.
