Key Takeaways

What’s the real impact of employee recognition?

Is it a feel-good initiative, or does it drive business results? The numbers don’t lie — recognition isn’t just about boosting morale; it’s a powerful tool for retention. Employees who feel valued and appreciated are far more likely to stay, and the data proves it.

If you’re looking for a smarter way to keep top talent, recognition might be the key.

Why recognition isn’t working — yet

Most HR leaders say they provide recognition training, but here’s the disconnect: less than half of employees say they’ve received it. Even more striking? Only a third of organizations train people on how to give meaningful recognition. Without the right approach, recognition efforts fall flat — missing the opportunity to engage employees, boost retention, and drive business results.

So, how can companies build a recognition strategy that works? In Recognize to retain: The business case for recognition, you’ll discover key insights, backed by research, to help you build a recognition program that fuels engagement and business success.

Recognition isn’t just about saying “thank you” — it’s about creating a culture where employees feel valued and motivated to stay. The good news? A strategic, measurable approach can drive real results.
