For more than 15 years, we’ve studied the employee experience to understand the factors that contribute to employees feeling safe, valued, and productive at work.  

To do this, we use recognition as our lens. But not just recognition as a concept, recognition as a strategic practice, one that is embedded across an organization. At Workhuman®, we call this “recognition done right.” In such circumstances, recognition positively influences almost every area of an organization and its people. It amplifies employee engagement, performance, innovation, and adaptability. But it’s not the only facet of work that has wide-reaching benefits. 

This year’s Workhuman® iQ survey tackles emerging priorities – AI integration, skills development, ongoing feedback, and frequent check-ins – head on, charting a path for leaders to thrive over the long term.
