Join @Brandon.orme and Product Manager @JustinSaunders as they unveil the Giving Guide, a powerful new feature designed to eliminate guesswork and bring equity and clarity to your recognition programs!
The Giving Guide is an in-platform tool that presents a recommended award amount to users based on their answers to admin-configured rubric questions. It solves the common challenge of, "How much should I give?" by standardizing award allocation and supporting your internal giving guidelines directly within the recognition flow.
Key Takeaways from the Workshop:
- For Admins: Say goodbye to manually managing external rubrics! The Giving Guide reduces administrative burden and gives you a powerful tool to track how closely your organization is following recognition expectations. This helps in ROI conversations with leadership by demonstrating that recognition spend is tied to measured behaviors (like company values) and performance.
- For Users: Users get a seamless and positive recognition experience. They are guided to an appropriate award amount, eliminating the stress of decision-making and ensuring fairness, while still retaining the power of choice to select a different value if needed.
- Easy Setup & Best Practice: Set up the guide on individual recognition programs. Best practices suggest using 3 to 4 metrics (questions) and 4 to 5 award presets (columns) for the most effective and friction-less user experience.
- Reporting & Approvals: All Giving Guide data—including the recommended point award versus the actual amount given—is captured in the Recognition Details Report. This new information is also included in the approvals flow, allowing approvers to make more informed decisions quickly.
The Giving Guide and accompanying support articles will be available starting Monday, November 24, 2025!
