Recognition is one of the most powerful drivers of engagement and loyalty. When employees feel their efforts are noticed and valued, they show greater ownership, creativity, and resilience. When recognition is inconsistent or absent, even strong performers lose motivation and feel disconnected from the organization. Effective recognition systems reinforce desired behaviors and create a culture where people understand the impact of their work. Organizations that overlook recognition experience declining morale, reduced discretionary effort, and higher turnover risk.
