Thank you for subscribing.

Now you can do even more to empower employees around the globe with Culture Cloud®, our market-leading recognition platform. We’ve made updates this quarter that will help employees claim awards in exciting new ways, access the platform more easily, and stay connected to a culture of appreciation.

Powerful Integrations with Your Preferred HR Systems

Expanding Integrations

At O.C. Tanner, we’re constantly expanding the ability for companies to integrate recognition data into their most important HR systems. Culture Cloud now integrates with 75+ HR information systems, giving people leaders greater visibility at the intersection of recognition and employee data.  

Our native HRIS integration is easy to use and keeps information all in one place.

Store Enhancements

Branded Company Store (Beta)

Create your own customized company award store, featuring branded swag with your company logo. Receiving swag as part of recognition helps build a sense of belonging and team spirit among employees, and people love showing off their company pride with logo-branded clothing, gear, and tech.

Manager Store

Now you can create a separate Manager Store to support special moments for teams. Leaders can order customized trophies, gifts, and awards for special events, tailored to the needs of their team.

Increased Recognition Visibility

Post a Win and Celebrate (Beta)

For quiet achievers or undercelebrated employees, Post a Win lets anyone share a success story, no manager needed. Users can give their team (or themselves) recognition for others to see and appreciate.

Designed to mirror social media best practices, Post a Win helps increase engagement and create a culture of inspiration in the workforce.

Boost a Recognition Moment (Beta)

After an employee receives recognition, colleagues can use the Boost feature to add more points. This is a fresh, simple way to amplify appreciation while creating greater connection across teams, making every “thank you” go further.

Boost helps you unlock greater employee engagement and excitement around recognition, without creating extra work. Research from the Global Culture Report shows both givers and receivers benefit from the interaction of “boosting” a colleague’s recognition moment. Receivers feel more appreciated and can claim more awards, while those giving a Boost feel more engaged, empowered, and invested in the success of their team.

Built with controls in place to avoid over-spending, anyone can click to add more points or dollars to a colleague’s recognition, up to a pre-set limit.

Give a Shout Out with Leader Broadcast

Sometimes the best recognition needs a mic. With Broadcast, leaders can spotlight the great work happening across their organization. Templated email messages include the key details and a link back to the original recognition moment, making it easy to pass along the good news about recognition, including Nominations, Awards, Anniversaries, and eCards. Leaders can choose to share the news with just a few individuals or with larger groups—they have total control over who receives a Broadcast message.

Empower a culture of appreciation across teams and departments using Broadcast to increase the visibility of your team members’ recognition.
