‘Giving recognition and thanks for a job well done promotes happiness in both the recipient and the giver.’

‘Social recognition serves as a healthy-living routine for company culture. It promotes only desired behaviors and discourages superfluous or unhealthy behaviors.’

‘Recognition by peers is one sign that the company’s culture has spread from the elite to the majority.’

‘When peers recognize each others’ contributions, they build trust. Silo walls fall, and information flows more freely.’

‘In a knowledge economy, almost all work is collaborative, that is, social.’

‘The most valuable actions should be recognized, recorded, and retrievable.’

‘Social recognition cultivates a culture of recogniton among employees, management, and executive leadership.’

‘A clear global strategy requires a clear outcome.’

‘Reputation management is no longer a simple matter of ‘managing up’ or becoming the boss’s favorite, but about cultivating a continuous positive conversation with the community.’

‘A global strategy creates a single recognition brand and vocabulary.’

‘Strategic recognition aligns company culture with geographic, national, and even demographic cultures. The company’s most important values are understood by everyone…’

‘Recognition is, like engagement, energy, and creativity, measurable but is about more than a single metric.’
