How Employee Recognition Impacts Retention, Culture, and Employee Engagement

Everyone wants to be recognized for doing good work – and yet many leaders don’t make employee recognition a priority.  

As a result, employees can feel undervalued and unrecognized for their hard work, and may even start looking for jobs elsewhere. In this episode of HR Unplugged, we welcomed special guest Trevor Larson, CEO of Nectar, to talk about how employee recognition can go a long way in making people feel valued at work. 

Trevor joins Anita Grantham, Head of HR, and Vanessa Brulotte, HR Business Partner at BambooHR, to explore ways to build recognition into company culture and the benefits of doing so.
