Leveraging the Recognize platform's Nominations feature is a seamless way to conduct a companywide voting campaign or nomination period for above and beyond recognition. For more detailed information on Nominations, see our FAQ article.
Here is a sample email template that you could use to publicize an upcoming nominations campaign:
Dear employees,
As you may know, MONTH is a time where we reflect on the past year and identify a recipient for our annual AWARD. And this year, we would like to hear from you directly about who this person should be!
Starting DATE, we will be accepting nominations from all employees for this award through the Recognize platform. And you will be able to nominate one of your fellow colleagues through END DATE.
Instructions for Submitting a Nomination:
During active Nomination campaigns, staff can easily submit Nominations through the Recognize portal by following the steps below.
-
Log in to Recognize via your company's user authentication method
- Click on the 'Recognize' button in the top left main menu
- Select 'Nominate' from the center of the page to switch to the Nomination form
- Then, complete the following fields for each Nomination:
a. Choose a Badge (make sure to choose the correct Nomination campaign's Badge if there are multiple campaigns running at once)
b. Choose a Recipient (type-in either employee name or team name, if your company allows team Nominations)
c. Type a Message (reason for Nominating this employee, if your organization is requiring a message) - you can also attach files, images, or links here
d. Click the 'Nominate' button once you've completed the above steps to submit the Nomination - Once submitted, your 'Nomination' will be privately registered in Recognize and viewable only by Recognize Company Admins
