Getting leaders to care about employee recognition
Episode 29
Tuesday, 28 April, 2026
This episode, Stephen Shao and Taylor Hilton, Client Strategists at O.C. Tanner, share how your organization can engage leaders in your employee recognition practices—now and in the long term. Takeaways: Communicate the "why" to help leaders view recognition as a core leadership habit that builds trust rather than just another platform to use. Highlight success by identifying leaders who model these behaviors and celebrating them in high-visibility channels like town halls or newsletters. Embed recognition into the daily flow of work by integrating tools into systems like Outlook and Slack to make the process seamless for busy managers. The Culture by Design podcast is created by O.C. Tanner, the global leader in software and services that improve workplace culture through meaningful employee recognition.
