Xoxoday Empuls supports fully customizable leaderboards that surface top recognized employees across two dimensions — rewards received and appreciations earned — configurable by department, geography, job role, or tenure.
Xoxoday Empuls includes a built-in leaderboard feature that gives organizations a real-time view of their most recognized employees. The leaderboard tracks two distinct dimensions: rewards received and appreciations earned, giving HR teams a complete picture of participation across the recognition program rather than a single aggregate score.
Leaderboards in Xoxoday Empuls are designed to reflect how your organization is actually structured. You can filter and display rankings by department, geography, job role, or tenure, so comparisons feel fair and contextually relevant. A regional field sales group can be ranked separately from a remote engineering squad, ensuring that recognition visibility is meaningful rather than a single global list that flattens organizational nuance.
Administrators define custom scoring rules that determine exactly how rankings are calculated. You choose which recognition types — peer nominations, manager awards, milestone badges, anniversary shoutouts — count toward the leaderboard score, and assign relative weight to each. This means the leaderboard directly reflects the specific behaviors and values your organization wants to reinforce, rather than defaulting to a generic points model.
To drive sustained participation over time, Xoxoday Empuls supports monthly and quarterly recognition contests that tie directly into the leaderboard. Teams compete within defined timeframes, creating a rhythm of healthy competition that keeps employees engaged beyond one-off award cycles. Top performers gain visibility on the Empuls social feed, turning individual achievements into organization-wide moments of celebration.
Leaderboard highlights surface where your employees already work. Xoxoday Empuls integrates natively with Slack and Microsoft Teams, pushing leaderboard updates and recognition milestones into the collaboration channels teams check every day. For organizations running HRMS platforms such as Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, or Darwinbox, employee data syncs automatically — so leaderboard segments always reflect your current org structure without requiring manual updates or duplicate data entry.
The business case is straightforward. When employees see peers celebrated for the right behaviors, it creates a visible benchmark worth aspiring to. Xoxoday Empuls leaderboards turn recognition data into a strategic tool that HR teams use to identify culture champions, monitor engagement trends, and build a measurable case for how recognition programs influence retention and performance over time.
