Q1 2025 Culture Cloud Product Update
ANNIVERSARIES
We’re excited to announce that Anniversaries, our industry-leading tool for celebrating career milestones and anniversaries, is now part of the Culture Cloud platform. It’s easy to access – just click the Anniversaries tab on the Culture Cloud home page.

Here you can view upcoming anniversaries and share congratulations in Yearbook, our program for recognizing career milestones. Users can honor colleagues with personalized notes (editable), photos, and videos.

Recognition Coach, our AI-powered tool, provides in-the-moment, role-relevant guidance in writing effective and meaningful personal notes within Yearbook. Career anniversaries are now spotlighted in the Culture Cloud social feed, including automated platform notifications shared with leaders and the employee who is celebrating. We’ve also enhanced anniversary celebrations with a wide variety of award choices, including logo-branded and symbolic awards. Celebrate anniversaries on the go within the Culture Cloud mobile app, where participants can write personal notes and upload photos and videos.

ADMIN HOME
The reporting capabilities of Culture Cloud make it easy to see who’s doing great work, track program participation, compare teams, and organize data to support the needs of your team.
We’ve added new reports for monitoring Anniversaries activity, including:
- Career Anniversary Dashboard – summarizes celebration status and employee engagement within the Anniversary program for all your employees
- Career Anniversary Events – shows the details of current and past employee anniversary celebrations
- Career Anniversary Participants – allows Admins to see who has been invited to participate in an employee’s anniversary celebration
We’ve also added an Anniversaries export within the Orders report, so Admins can easily view orders, shipping and tracking information for those celebrating (and view a list of those who have not ordered their award yet).

MOBILE
Recognition Coach is also now available in the Culture Cloud app. It empowers users with in-the-moment micro-coaching to improve how employees communicate and recognize one another. Our AI model has been trained by the O.C. Tanner Institute’s data-science experts, who conducted a sample analysis of 100 million+ recognition moments. This analysis, informed by our proven best recognition practices, picks up on subtleties in recognition messages and delivers real-time suggestions for improvement. Contact your Client Success representative to add Recognition Coach to your program.

ECARD LIBRARY
To ensure our eCard library stays fresh and representative of today’s workforce, we’re retiring a number of outdated eCards. This will not impact the user’s recognition history or reporting – users will still be able to see all the cards they’ve sent and received. Retiring a selection of older eCards improves findability of updated eCards as they are added to Culture Cloud.
STORE
We’re introducing a new Admin Home tool that allows admins to select and preview the Anniversary Store experience. This will help administrators review product availability, validate award selection by level and country, confirm their specific user experience, and troubleshoot any Store issues that may come up.

SOCIAL FEED FILTERING
At times, leaders struggle to quickly view downline team members on their social feed. We’ve added a new filter on the social feed that adds a downline view that can be enabled within the leader’s User Settings. Users can also set a social feed filter to view other employees based on business unit, job title, location or manager. Admins should contact their Client Success representative to enable the social feed filter for their users.

SHAREPOINT INTEGRATION
We’ve updated our collaborative integration tools with an addition to Microsoft’s SharePoint. This integration will display Culture Cloud’s social feed directly on your SharePoint instance.

MS TEAMS CHATBOT
We are adding eCard and award notifications to our Microsoft Teams chatbot integration. This allows users who give recognition within Microsoft Teams to receive notifications to view their recognition. Clients can opt-in to install our new Microsoft Teams chatbot integration.

MY TEAM
We’ve added an Anniversaries tab in My Team’s Reporting which allows leaders to see upcoming anniversaries for their team and prepare to celebrate team members’ milestones.
