Globoforce and Intuit to Showcase How Strategic Recognition Positively Impacts Employee Engagement at 2009 HR Technology Conference
Presentation Underscores the Effect of Intuit’s ‘Spotlight’ Recognition Program on Employee Performance, Particularly in Tough Economic Times
SOUTHBOROUGH, MASS., and DUBLIN, IRELAND – September 22, 2009 – Globoforce, a leading provider of global strategic employee recognition solutions, today announced that it will jointly present a workshop session with Intuit, Inc., a leading provider of business and financial management solutions, at the HR Technology Conference & Exposition in Chicago on Thursday, October 1, at 1:45 p.m.
The session, titled ‘With Lower Bonuses, Intuit Turns to Employee Recognition,’ will highlight how Intuit – named America’s Most Admired Software Company by FORTUNE magazine for five years running – has consistently achieved and maintained employee engagement levels over the past several years of greater than 80 percent for a cost of one percent of base payroll. Using its on-demand recognition program from Globoforce, Intuit annually recognizes employees with smaller rewards (with an average of $150) that touch more than 80 percent of the company’s global workforce of nearly 8,000 employees in more than 70 locations in 40 cities around the world.
Eric Mosley, CEO of Globoforce, and Jim Grenier, Vice President of Performance, Rewards & Workplace at Intuit, will give session attendees an inside look at Intuit’s total rewards approach to recognition, detailing how the company’s ‘Spotlight’ employee recognition program keeps motivation and morale high, in spite of lower bonuses due to the challenging economy. According to Grenier, by keeping the spotlight on performance, his team provides a year-round mechanism to improve feedback through recognition for achieving team goals and milestones and individual achievements.
