By paying attention to congruence, alignment and fit, individuals can find organizations that are better aligned with their value system and more rewarding experiences.

Social media has emerged as an effective tool in rewarding and recognizing employees. By nature of their usage, the average social media user is looking to connect with and be recognized by as many individuals as possible. Therefore, from a theoretical standpoint, the social sphere lends itself to recognition and reward.​ ​In this interactive webinar, Carisa Miklusak CEO of tMedia, Todd Horton Co-founder of Kango Gifts, Michelle Serwatka Sales Operations Analist at Monster.com, and Chad Norman Director of Marketing at Sparc Edge will discuss how organizations can integrate social media, leveraging the tool to recognize and reward employees. Privacy and safety consideration are a critical factor of successful implementation. Fortunately, when positioned productively, social media can be used to efficiently recognize both internal employees and external stakeholders in a safe and effective manner.​ Companies are increasingly embracing social media tools for a range of various activities. While new, the trend is to get more social and companies must experiment now. If HR doesn't take a lead, managers will find their own tools.​
