The Importance of Peer Recognition

Peer recognition, also referred to as peer-to-peer recognition is when employees publicly recognize each other’s contributions, achievements, skills or talent. This type of recognition deserves distinctive attention as it eradicates the employer-employee power dynamic and facilitates a free-flow of appreciation among colleagues.

How to Build a Fairer Workplace

The onset of March marks two important junctures- International Women’s Day as well as Women’s History Month. Evidently, this presents a significant opportunity in the corporate world to assess Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) in the workplace as an effort to strengthen the underrepresented groups that form an integral part of your workforce. Inherent social biases including gender, age, ethnicity, caste, sexual orientation, and economic status often deteriorate cultural health; biased favoritism breeds resentment toward favored individuals including the employer.
