4. WHAT IS EMPLOYEE RECOGNITION?
Employee recognition is the acknowledgement of an individual (or team's)
behaviour, efforts and accomplishments that supports the organization's
goals and values.

5. WHOSE RESPONSIBILITY IS IT?
Employees want their contributions and efforts to be acknowledged by those
they work with on a day-to-day basis, including managers and peers.

6. WHY RECOGNITION?
The number one reason most employees leave their job is
because they don’t feel appreciated!

employee recognition…
85% see positive impact on engagement
