Recognition
The Recognition page in Wazo is a dedicated space where employees can view all the recognitions they’ve received or given. Recognition in Wazo is peer-to-peer and manager-to-employee appreciation — celebrating efforts, contributions, and positive behaviors openly. Each recognition includes the giver’s name and role, the date of recognition, a personalized message, and any associated badges or awards. Users can filter recognitions by Most Recent or Oldest, and by Received or Given. The 'Give Recognition' button allows users to instantly appreciate a colleague with a message and optional badge.

Use Case
Recognizing Cross-Team Collaboration
Imagine a project where a backend engineer helps the sales team automate client onboarding. A sales executive sends a recognition note, thanking the engineer for their impact. The engineer receives this recognition with a personal message and a badge like 'Above and Beyond,' which is displayed in their profile and the live feed — publicly acknowledging cross-functional contribution.
Impact
For Employees
They receive timely, specific, and visible appreciation, which increases engagement, loyalty, and satisfaction.
For the Organization
Recognition-driven cultures outperform others on productivity, retention, and employee happiness. Peer recognition decentralizes engagement, making it an organization-wide habit rather than an HR-only initiative.
