Employee recognition is one of the most effective ways to strengthen culture, boost engagement, and drive performance. But without visibility into what’s working, it can be hard to scale those efforts or measure their true impact.
That’s why our latest WorkTango release focuses on helping you celebrate more meaningfully, highlight what matters, and uncover insights that lead to stronger teams.
Understand the Quality of Recognition with AI Recognition Scores
Recognition should be authentic, but it can also be strategic. With our new AI Recognition Scores, administrators can now identify which messages are most impactful based on how specific, meaningful, timely, celebratory, and relevant they are.
The Recognition Score provides a data-backed view into the quality of recognition being shared across your organization. It helps uncover the moments that truly reflect your culture and values. Recognition Scores are currently only visible to administrators, so employee experiences remain positive and focused on appreciation.
Turn Standout Recognition into Culture Moments
Recognition Scores do more than surface strong messages. They also help you take action. Admins can now filter by score to find top recognition and then pin those messages to the top of the Activity Feed. This ensures your most impactful shoutouts are highlighted across the organization and aligned with the values that matter most.
It’s a simple way to lead by example and inspire others to follow suit.
Customize and Elevate Pinned Recognition
Pinned Recognition is more flexible and impactful than ever. Admins can now add additional recognition points, assign custom themes, and set expiration dates for pinned messages.
These enhancements allow you to:
- Give extra visibility and value to important recognition moments
- Tie recognition to specific initiatives or seasonal programs
- Keep your feed dynamic and relevant by controlling how long messages stay pinned
With these new options, Pinned Recognition becomes a powerful tool for reinforcing priorities and amplifying the behaviors that drive culture forward.
See the Bigger Picture with the Recognition Insights Dashboard
The new Recognition Insights Dashboard gives you a clearer view into how recognition is being used across your company. It includes two key data sets: Recognition Scores, which evaluate the quality of Recognition, and Leadership Scores, which measure how well your leaders are modeling recognition behaviors.
With these insights, HR teams and executives can better understand trends, identify opportunities, and take more targeted action to strengthen culture and engagement.
