Monica Delgado

Senior Manager of Total Rewards

Companies that invest in recognition are seen as people-centric. When people feel appreciated for their contributions and are truly engaged, they’re more innovative, more creative, and more willing to think beyond the status quo. This elevates work, fuels stronger business outcomes and can foster deeper customer relationships.

Monica Gunderson

Talent Management Senior Associate

Since joining, I’ve found myKudos [Awardco] posts to be a great way to learn what others are doing across the agency. I’ve even picked up ideas from shoutouts that I’ve been able to implement on my own accounts. It’s more than recognition—it’s a source of inspiration.

Colby Green

Paid Social Senior Associate

When employees feel seen and appreciated, they’re more engaged and engagement drives performance. Using Awardco helps leaders and managers recognise impact in real time and that momentum drives continued and lasting success.

Monica Gunderson

Talent Management Senior Associate

If we retain a teacher, that’s 20 students we get to serve. Going from 45% turnover to 8% means we’ve kept 85–90 more staff. That’s an incredible impact on both our children and our budget.

Amber Lease

Human Resource Director

Awardco has made employees' lives easier. Working outside in the elements with the customers can be tough, but being recognised, seen, heard, and valued makes it easier.

Christina Castro

Training Leader

Thanks to Christi and the Awardco Center of Excellence, we now have a strong thought partner that shares new and different strategies to help us further elevate the Americare recognition experience. We have tested the market, and this collaborative consultation and creative problem solving from recognition practitioners differentiates Awardco. In practice, it has built our confidence that we have business partners who are sincerely invested in helping us take recognition from being a perk to a powerful strategic driver that delivers tangible impact.

Sarah Mazzocco

Chief People Officer

We needed something to unify our recognition programmes for all our different locations, and we found that and more with Awardco.

Recognition and Communications Specialist

Return On Recognition

Customer-centric features and usability

Any business, large or small, will enjoy simple implementation, powerful reporting, endless customisation, personal support, and a platform that’s easy to use.

Employee Performance

improvement in productivity

When employees feel valued and supported, they bring more energy, drive, and passion to work. That translates into higher engagement, stronger performance, and a real impact on your bottom line. Investing in recognition isn’t just good for culture, it’s smart business.

Retention

decrease in employee turnover

When employees leave, exit interviews often reveal a common theme: they didn’t feel seen or appreciated. Prioritising recognition as part of your culture fosters deeper engagement, and can be the difference between retention and costly turnover.

Admin Efficiency

Employees report higher job satisfaction when they’re recognised regularly, and it’s no coincidence. Recognition triggers positive brain chemistry, strengthening connection, boosting productivity, and fostering a deeper sense of belonging.

better vs competitors

Company performance is significantly improved compared to their competitors. Engaged employees don’t just contribute, they compete. Recognition fuels engagement, and engaged teams perform at a higher level, drive innovation, and push your business ahead of the pack. If you want to outperform the competition, don’t look outward, start from within by celebrating your people.

Admin Efficiency
