Supporting the public sector

Utah Jazz
Grâce à Awardco, nous avons pu créer une offre où ils peuvent choisir parmi une variété de cadeaux. C'est super pratique de cette façon. Ces cadeaux sont exclusifs. C'est créé juste pour eux. Nous avons fait des chandails, des sacs, des pulls à col zippé, des sacs à dos… nous avons fait des raquettes de pickleball.

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.

C'est assurément beaucoup plus simple, car vous n'avez pas à transporter votre cadeau avec vous pendant tout le match ni à faire un déplacement spécial pour aller le chercher. Vous commandez simplement votre prix et il vous est livré par la poste.

For us to onboard a staff member, it's probably close to about 5,000 to 6,000 dollars. As a nonprofit, I feel like going to Awardco has been a huge cost-savings advantage.

We strive to create a high performance culture. If we're looking for certain actions and mindsets, we should celebrate them when they happen and find creative and frequent ways to recognise and appreciate the hard work behind them.
