Xoxoday Empuls supports a dropdown menu for selecting badges during recognition, with each badge linked to specific value statements that also appear as a dropdown, ensuring every recognition ties back to your organisation’s core behaviours.
Xoxoday Empuls provides a structured dropdown during the recognition workflow, allowing employees and managers to browse and select the appropriate badge without ambiguity. The dropdown presents all active badges in a clean, navigable list so the right award reaches the right person accurately, whether the recognition is initiated on the web app, Microsoft Teams, or Slack. Linking value statements to each badge Each badge or award in Xoxoday Empuls can be configured with a dedicated set of value statements that surface as a secondary dropdown the moment that badge is chosen. For example, a “Customer Champion” badge might display value statements such as “Builds trust with stakeholders” or “Consistently exceeds expectations,” prompting the recogniser to anchor their message to a specific organisational value rather than leaving it open-ended. This is not a cosmetic layer. It turns the recognition moment into a deliberate, structured act that reinforces culture at the point of impact. Administrator control over badge and value configuration Xoxoday Empuls gives HR administrators complete control over badge creation, imagery, and associated value statements through the admin console — no developer involvement required. Updates apply immediately across all recognition touchpoints. Organisations using HRIS platforms such as Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, or Darwinbox can synchronise employee and department data with Xoxoday Empuls, keeping badge configurations consistent across all people systems without manual reconciliation. Automated recognitions follow the same structure Xoxoday Empuls supports automated recognition workflows triggered by milestones such as work anniversaries, onboarding completion, or project sign-off. These system-initiated recognitions draw from the same configured badge and value statement lists, ensuring that automated moments carry the same structured, values-aligned experience as a personally written recognition. Consistency across manual and automated touchpoints reduces the administrative burden on managers while maintaining inclusivity across distributed teams. Why structured recognition drives engagement Generic praise fades quickly. By requiring a badge selection and an associated value statement, Xoxoday Empuls transforms each recognition from a vague compliment into a specific, memorable moment tied to a behaviour that matters to the organisation. Managers articulate which action exemplified which value — a practice consistently linked to improved engagement and reduced attrition in distributed and hybrid workforces. All recognition data, configurations, and integrations within Xoxoday Empuls operate under an enterprise-grade security framework that includes ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II certifications.
