How to choose the best employee recognition tool for your team
A checklist of the top criteria you need to consider when choosing the best recognition tool for your team.
Read MoreWhether you’re building a business case for investing in employee recognition and reward, trying to understand how recognition motivates employees in the workplace, or simply doing research on the impacts of employee appreciation, you’ve landed in the right place.
We’ve gathered a list of the most insightful employee retention statistics from studies around the world.
We’ve known for decades that employee recognition in the workplace is an amazing tool for motivation and employee engagement – however workplaces seemingly still struggle to get recognition right.
A study by Glassdoor found that recognition is a much better motivator for great work than old-school fear tactics in the workplace. The results showed that only 38% of employees will work harder if their boss is demanding, and 37% if they have a genuine fear of losing their job – but recognition and appreciation goes much, much further.
And plenty of other similar employee recognition research show the same story…
Recognition of employees isn’t just about improving morale – it also has tangible benefits that positively impact a company’s bottom line.
By acknowledging and appreciating employees’ contributions, businesses can reduce turnover rates, enhance profitability, and even improve customer satisfaction.
The most important part about appreciating your employees is being authentic and personalised. And when you can get it right, the benefits for your team and organisation can be truly transformative.
Staff recognition shapes trust in leadership, increases motivation and loyalty at work, and is proven to be a cost-effective approach to retention – there really isn’t an argument against implementing an employee recognition scheme in your workplace.
I had one of the managers ring me just after we launched Shout-outs, she said she had read one sent to her and cried with happiness. That will always stick with me. Stribe is definitely impactful on an individual basis and an organisational one.
