Bersin & Associates research shows that nearly 90% of organizations have some sort of recognition program in place. Yet, many of these programs are ad-hoc initiatives that are neither connected to one another nor the needs of the business or employees. In an era where every investment must prove itself, recognition programs need to make a larger impact.

During this webcast, Stacia Garr, Senior Analyst at Bersin, will introduce the framework, explain how organizations can use it to design a strategic recognition program and share examples of how organizations have executed different parts of the framework.
