The Disconnect

While peer-to-peer recognition is taking place, there seems to be a disconnect between executives and management recognizing their employees. That disconnect becomes more apparent as managers don’t have access to see how workers are recognizing each other for their hard work.

Another disconnect is shown when looking at communication trends: 13% of employees have bosses that interact most with them outside of working hours.

For doing a good job

61% Employee evaluations

46% Personal life events (birthdays, weddings, having a child)

41% During meetings

28% Holidays

Key takeaway:

Peers are recognizing each other more than managers are.

If your company had a recognition platform to easily let coworkers know you appreciate them, how often would you use it?

The majority of employees are recognizing their peers at least once a month, while 55% recognize their colleagues at least once a week.
