Recognition that yields results

Recognition just reminds you that no, you are seen. Your work is not for nothing. You are appreciated. It feels great and helps you stay motivated, even when things are tough.
Zach Makoutz
Sr. Manager, Category Sales Product
Children's Nebraska
Some of the great stories that we've read are how impactful all of the team members have been to help the children feel better, it's showing our team members how impactful they are.

Awardco allows me to save my points for meaningful things. I’m using mine to pay for excursions and transportation for my wedding in Mexico. It’s a huge stress relief and makes me feel truly valued.
Mallory Pence
Marketing Manager
Alera Group
We do an annual engagement survey, and we do see a lot of comments from people saying they love to work here because of the people they work with. We get a lot of good comments about working with others.

Managers now have visibility into real-time recognition, which makes performance reviews easier and more holistic.
Monica Gunderson
Talent Management Lead
PMG
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.

Awardco makes it really easy to select colleagues that you want to recognise, whether it's one, whether it's multiple. Recognition helps build trust with teammates and leaders.
Brett Miller
VP of Creative

I don't worry about the cost as much in these situations because I think having an engaged employee, a happy, satisfied employee that feels like they're part of something is going to reap a lot more rewards in the long run.
