Elevating meaningful recognition with Applause Insights

A global pharmaceutical client prioritised continuous improvement of their programme to outperform BI WORLDWIDE’S best-in-class recognition benchmarks. Read on to find out how. 

The Challenge

In 2020, we launched the global recognition programme “Applause” for employees at a major pharmaceutical organisation.

Over the past 3 years, the programme has achieved remarkable recognition and reward engagement, outperforming BI WORLDWIDE’s global best-in-class benchmarks. Recognising the significance of appreciation, our client prioritised continuous improvement to foster a recognition-rich culture within their organisation. Their goal? To enhance meaningful recognition – personal, timely, accurate, and specific – through the programme.
