About the Panel Discussion

Employee engagement is dangerously low, and retention is getting harder by the day. Over half of employees are already looking for their next role, while turnover costs are spiraling—200% of salary for leaders, 80% for tech talent. Meanwhile, many companies still treat recognition like a soft perk instead of the business-critical strategy it truly is.

But here’s the kicker: when done right, recognition works. Companies that invest just 1% of payroll in strategic recognition see game-changing outcomes—lower turnover, stronger engagement, improved safety, and better performance. The latest research proves that fulfilling, authentic, personalized, equitable, and embedded recognition is the key to unlocking real ROI.

Join us for a LIVE interactive panel discussion where you will learn how to transform recognition from a nice-to-have into a performance engine. We’ll show you how to fund it correctly, scale it with intention, track the ROI, and harness AI-powered insights to turn moments of gratitude into measurable outcomes.
