However, in the unlikely event that you\u2019re burying someone in compliments and good wishes to such an extent that they can\u2019t even open their inbox, then perhaps it\u2019s time to take a break.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But generally, the more often you\u2019re able to <strong>genuinely<\/strong> recognise and appreciate someone\u2019s hard work and skills, the better. Gallup suggests that the ideal frequency of recognition should be at least once every <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gallup.com\/workplace\/400907\/industry-delivering-employee-recognition.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">seven days<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, there\u2019s also the type and quality of recognition to consider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"4\">The Different Types of Employee Recognition<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Employee recognition can come in a few different packages, from formal reward structures to regular compliments and praise during monthly check-ins. It could be monetary, focused on personal growth, written or spoken. It could be private or public, between managers and employees or co-workers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are some great benefits to introducing <a href=\"https:\/\/mo.work\/insights\/peer-to-peer-recognition\/\">peer-to-peer recognition<\/a> programs and plenty of software solutions to make integrating appreciation easy. For a closer look at the different ways to show appreciation, check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/mo.work\/insights\/what-is-employee-recognition\/\">complete guide to employee recognition<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"5\">How Effective Are Employee Recognition Programs?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A strong employee recognition program can be a very effective way to drive engagement and create a culture of appreciation, partly because it helps you and your team form habits that can improve the <a href=\"https:\/\/mo.work\/insights\/what-is-employee-experience\/\">employee experience.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, an employee recognition program is only effective if you use it \u2013&nbsp;and if you make sure to engage your employees in a way they want to be engaged. Not sure what that is? Try finding out with an <a href=\"https:\/\/mo.work\/solutions\/employee-engagement\/\">employee engagement survey.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Mo, we\u2019ve created a <a href=\"https:\/\/mo.work\/solutions\/employee-recognition\/\">recognition platform<\/a> that works with you, letting you celebrate your employees and their successes in a fun and easy-to-access way.
