🤔 How does recognition work in Happyforce?

We’ve made it simple, quick, and meaningful. Follow these three steps:

1️⃣ Choose who you want to recognize.

Let’s break it down! 👇

1️⃣ Choose who you want to recognize

Here’s the fun part: you can recognize anyone in your organization, whether they’re in your team, another department, your country, or even another continent. 🌍 Recognition knows no boundaries!

  • Why did you choose this particular value?

Don’t worry if you’re unsure where to start. What matters is speaking from the heart ❤️. Imagine the smile on their face when they read your words. You’re contributing to a positive and motivating workplace!
