For decades, bosses and managers have been trying to get employee recognition and motivation right. The amount of content on the web around disrupting HR and the Future of Work, attests to the fact that what motivates employees is constantly shifting with the times.
One of the ways we?ve tried to make employee recognition simpler and more fun, is with one of our latest features: the Hi5’er of the month poster. Yeah, for years high achievers have received old school wooden or plastic plaques, or cheesy framed posters, in acknowledgement of their efforts.
We?ve turned things around ? First, public recognition on their company?s Hi5 Wall of Fame, then recognition from the manager through Hi5 Crowning. After, the Hi5’er of the Month poster is the cherry on the chocolate fudge sundae.
Here?s how it works:
