Empuls surfaces top-performing and most-appreciated employees through Custom Leaderboards — with configurable scoring, refresh cadence, and ranking criteria — and a Wall of Fame that celebrates awards, recognition, and milestones in both Interactive and TV display modes.
Empuls gives HR and People teams two complementary tools to surface and celebrate high-performing employees: Custom Leaderboards and the Wall of Fame. Both work in tandem to keep recognition visible, timely, and motivating across the organization.

​
Custom Leaderboards

Custom Leaderboards in Empuls let admins rank employees based on criteria they define — number of awards received, recognition points earned, or appreciation frequency. Because you configure the scoring rules, leaderboards reflect what your organization genuinely values rather than generic output metrics. Admins also control how frequently rankings refresh: weekly, monthly, or quarterly. A fast-moving sales team might run weekly leaderboards tied to peer appreciation, while a quarterly cadence suits departments running structured recognition programs aligned to OKR reviews. For teams using Slack or Microsoft Teams, Empuls surfaces leaderboard activity directly in the channels employees already use, so recognition stays part of daily workflow rather than isolated in a separate tool. The result is a transparent, dynamic ranking that drives healthy competition — employees can see exactly where they stand and what behaviors earn recognition.

​
Wall of Fame

The Wall of Fame is a dedicated digital space within Empuls that celebrates employees who have received awards, formal recognition, or are marking milestones such as work anniversaries. It operates in two distinct modes. Interactive Mode lets employees browse award history and explore recognitions across teams at their own pace. It is particularly useful for new hires building a sense of company culture or for managers scanning team engagement signals before a one-on-one. TV Mode displays the Wall of Fame on digital screens in common areas — office lobbies, cafeterias, or shared screens during all-hands meetings and town halls. Organizations integrated with HRIS platforms like Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, or Darwinbox can sync employee milestone data automatically, keeping the Wall of Fame current without manual updates.

Why Visibility Drives Engagement

Recognition that stays private or buried in an email has limited cultural impact. Empuls makes achievements visible at scale — to the individual receiving recognition, to their team, and to the broader organization. Custom Leaderboards create a clear signal of what behaviors are valued. The Wall of Fame ensures awards and milestones receive genuine visibility, not just a transient notification. Together, these features create a reinforcing loop: employees see peers recognized, understand the criteria behind that recognition, and have a transparent path to earning their own place on the board or the wall. Empuls is certified under ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II, so this recognition data is handled securely across every integration. Learn more: Empuls Help Centre — Leaderboard
