Employee recognition has often been deemed a "feel-good" initiative, tied closely to rewards. While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance.

In today’s workplace, the true ROI of recognition lies in its ability to regenerate tangible, business-driven results. Led by Radhika Samant and Todd Wuestenberg, we will discuss how the modern workplace demands not only "feel-good" experiences but also "do-good" programs that deliver meaningful results. We’ll explore how, when done right, recognition becomes a mission-critical habit that sets the stage for behaviors and work practices that elevate standards, clarify expectations, and align team members with key company objectives.

Key objectives:

💡 Turn “feel good” into “do good”: Discover how recognition programs can shift from intangible benefits to real business impact.
