We invented recognition.  

Then we reimagined it.

Nearly a century ago, our founder, Obert Tanner, believed that people deserved to feel seen and valued at work. Today, that same belief powers Culture Cloud®—modern technology built to foster belonging, appreciation, and thriving workplace cultures around the world.

Recognition isn’t just what we do, it’s how we work. Our culture is built on seeing and celebrating the people behind every success.

Our culture of giving

Our founder, Obert C. Tanner, measured the company’s success by asking his accountant, “What’s our give-ability this month?” It’s why we give our employees eight hours of volunteer time annually, work to improve our communities, and give 10% of company profits to causes that benefit the environment, arts, education, human need, and other efforts that matter to our employees.
