ReUp Education Employee Perspectives
What’s your quotable philosophy on recognition?
I’ve always believed that while any one of us may be part of a larger system, no one should feel like they don’t matter within it. That’s why recognition is so important to me, especially as a people manager. People want to feel seen for their effort, their time and the impact they make. When I recognize someone, my goal is simple: to make sure they understand that what they do and more importantly, who they are, matters.
What data or policy shows it works?
At ReUp, you can see recognition in how consistently people engage with it. Tools like 15Five and Bonusly give us visibility into participation, whether that’s through the High Five leaderboard, where both recognition given and received are tracked, or the steady volume of peer-to-peer recognition across the company through Bonusly points given. Being the top name on the High Five leaderboard has even become a source of friendly competition for me!
Beyond the points or the leaderboard, the structure of how we give recognition matters: recognition is built into our systems and directly related to our values, leads to rewards like gift cards or swag and is reinforced through friendly competition and shared visibility where you can see who is giving and receiving recognition in a dedicated company Slack channel. These point to a culture here at ReUp where recognition isn’t once-in-a-while; it’s active, measurable and part of how we stay connected and engaged.
Which ritual keeps recognition alive?
From my first week at ReUp, I could feel how connected people were through recognition and nearly seven years later that hasn’t changed. We use tools like 15Five and Bonusly to celebrate each other’s contributions and in a remote and hybrid environment across teams and time zones, that really matters. We celebrate everything from birthdays and work anniversaries to personal and professional wins in Slack channels like #wins. On my team, we also highlight one impactful learner call each month, recognizing the individual with Bonusly points from both leadership and peers. These rituals are a constant reminder that the work we do and the people we do it with truly matter.
