Background
-
Inenco had a clear vision that they wanted to focus on colleague engagement. A recent engagement survey showed that only 33% of colleagues were engaged with the business.
-
One of the key areas of focus was ensuring colleagues felt valued and recognised for the great work they do.
-
Fanclub were engaged to review internal communications in order to ensure cut through on key company messages, bring clarity to communication channels and to develop a tone of voice.
-
As part of this work we implemented a low-cost recognition scheme which would see more colleagues recognised regularly and great work showcased across the business.
-
We'd recently worked with Inenco on a new intranet and the launch and design of their new company values & behaviours so this was a great opportunity to see these behaviours in action and celebrate them.
Our Solution
Our sister company Fanclub Recognition provides employee recognition solutions and services to companies looking to recognise their staff.
We were already supporting Inenco with other communication projects and Fanclub was a perfect fit for them
Identified the motivation
-
We held a survey with colleagues to understand what they thought of recognition at Inenco and what would truly motivate them and make them feel appreciated.
-
We followed this up with focus groups to drill into these issues and found that simple appreciation was more desired than vouchers, money or any big events where only a few people benefit.
Removing barriers
-
Getting leaders on side is just as important as any system or tool you bring into your business.
-
So, we held several Ready to Recognise sessions with all the leaders including the Directors to help them overcome any issues using the tool and with their own view on what could or should be recognised.
Initial Launch
-
We implemented our Fan Mail tool to begin with, which was quick to launch and provided an easy way for people to start recognising each other.
-
We also created a communications campaign, which included a teaser campaign, how to videos and a launch day.
Evolution
-
After a hugely successful 12 months using Fan Mail, the client wanted more integration and additional tools to support recognition and so they upgraded to Fan Hub, our full peer-to-peer social recognition platform.
