Employees want to enjoy their work and be successful, and if we recognise them for their success, they’ll know they’re doing a great job and can improve every single day.”

[Awardco] was something that was easy to use. I knew that healthcare provider's first priority is their patient, so how do we make it so easy that they can participate and still make sure that they're still taking care of the patient.

Recognising your team members... it's a it's a great way to build moral. To to get those team members to do that extra lorry. There's a saying, take care of the people and they'll take care of you. And by taking care of you, it's making sure that every lorry is turned in on time and every pallet is pushed through the warehouse.
