Most HR data gives you numbers.
Recognition data shows you the work.

Every meaningful recognition moment captures a human observation: what someone contributed, how they worked, which skills they demonstrated, who they brought along, and why the contribution mattered. Analyzed at scale, those observations can reveal patterns that conventional workforce data often misses.

Based on an analysis of millions of English-language recognition messages, the Recognition Intelligence Report explores what recognition can tell organizations about the experience of work — and what becomes possible when that data is connected with performance, retention, engagement, wellbeing, safety, culture, and other business outcomes.

In the report, you’ll discover:

• What recognition language can reveal about psychological safety, burnout-related strain, and AI adoption
• How recognition makes skills, collaboration, physical safety, and strategic contribution more visible
• Why more specific, meaningful recognition creates better data and deeper workforce insight

Featuring customer analyses and examples from Moody’s, British Airways, Encore, Panduit, CAA Club Group, and Zentiva, the report shows how organizations are moving beyond recognition activity metrics to understand how work really happens.
