Employee engagement and recognition is an integral element for employee motivation. As fundamental to being human, recognition is required by employees when they perform good and feel valued about themselves and their contribution to the team.
A large number of managers or organisations do not practice employee recognition when employees bring something great to the table. This; however, may not be due to the unwillingness of the managers to recognise their employees but may be due to the lack of appropriate recognition tools.
WooBoard helps to eliminate this limitation of an ineffective tool for employee engagement by offering a friendly way to keep employees happy while being engaged.
