One of the great things about Awardco is it's simple and it's easy to use. So having that intuitive platform allows our employees to quickly hop online and recognise each other in a way that's meaningful and fun.

Our client success rep helped us create a training and recording module of the platform to show employees how to properly use it. You rarely find a company willing to spend the time to make sure you're properly equipped.

When we unified our recognition programmes, we saw a strong correlation between recognition and employee engagement. Teams led by managers who consistently recognised their people were the most engaged.

Never underestimate the power of recognition. Years after I recognised a colleague, they still send me a message on the anniversary of that moment to say it continues to make their day.

The implementation was effortless. The Awardco team was incredibly supportive and proactive throughout the journey, offering guidance and expertise that led to a smooth and successful launch of our High Flyer programme.

People are busy. It's hard. We have our highest volumes we've ever had with patients. But when people take the time to celebrate one another, then we can really see that hope and that goodness beyond that. And so I really think that why we're successful is because our team cares about one another, and they take the time to recognise one another.

We have an on-the-spot recognition programme where leaders can immediately recognise a CRP for demonstrating safe behaviour. That recognition is visible across the organisation, which motivates others to do the same. Instead of focusing on what went wrong, we’ve shifted our culture to spotlight what’s being done right—and that’s encouraged everyone to follow that path.
Roshan Varghese
Sr. Director, Environment, Health & Safety
Citizens Business Bank
How do we better recognise our associates on the day to day? One of our engagement survey questions is, 'In the last seven days, have you been recognised for doing good work?' Awardco really allows us to to do that and to do a better job of that.
