About this Webinar
Many teams introduce recognition tools with the goal of strengthening culture and engagement. But as organizations grow and become more distributed, it's common to see challenges like:
- Slack or Teams channels becoming purely transactional
- Contributions happening behind the scenes
- Recognition varying across teams and managers
- Company values existing but not showing up in daily work
- Engagement becoming harder to maintain over time
The difference between teams where recognition fades and teams where it thrives often comes down to rituals — small, repeatable moments that make appreciation part of everyday work.
In this session, we explore practical ways HeyTaco admins are turning recognition into a daily cultural habit.
You'll hear from a HeyTaco admin who shares how their team used recognition rituals and HeyTaco features to:
- Strengthen connections across remote tems
- Make invisible work visible
- Reinforce company values through recognition
- Create rituals that drive participation across teams
- Shift recognition from HR-driven to team-driven
Whether you're looking for new ways to increase engagement with HeyTaco or exploring ideas for building stronger culture across your organization, you'll leave with practical ideas you can apply right away.
Designed for HeyTaco administrators and People & Culture leaders.
