Using Result-Driven Programs to Power Employee Recognition research: A supplemental report to Trends in Employee Recognition 2013 [28 August 2013]

[full-text, 6 pages]

 

[excerpt]

This supplemental research report is intended to provide additional detailed analysis on employee

recognition and the impacts of result‐driven programs. This research is derived from the full survey

report, "Trends in Employee Recognition 2013." The "Trends in Employee Recognition 2013" survey

summarized a variety of recognition programs currently used in organizations. For the full survey

methodology please refer to "Trends in Employee Recognition 2013."—see http://www.worldatwork.org/waw/adimLink?id=72689

 

In an effort to better understand recognition program goals, program strategies, budgeting, turnover

and program influence on employee satisfaction, motivation and engagement, three specific programs

were considered result‐driven programs and were selected for further analysis. These programs were:

 

• Above‐and‐beyond performance recognition

• Peer‐to‐peer recognition

• Recognition programs that motivate specific behavior.

 

The remainder of this report compares findings for organizations with one result‐driven program and all

three result‐driven programs to the overall aggregate findings.
