✨ Unlimited Sparkles: Peer Recognition with No Limits

In many organizations, peer recognition is valued—but not always practiced.
Busy schedules, lack of a clear system, or simply forgetting can mean that great contributions go unnoticed.
The problem is that when recognition becomes occasional or limited to formal events, we miss a powerful opportunity: reinforcing values and motivating people every single day.
According to Gallup (2022), employees who receive frequent recognition are 31% less likely to look for a new job and report higher satisfaction and productivity.
The Solution: Unlimited, Always-Free Sparkles
With Sparkle, peer-to-peer recognition is so simple it becomes a habit.
Sparkles are messages anyone in the team can send to acknowledge an action, achievement, or gesture aligned with your organization’s values.
And the best part:
- Unlimited: no quotas, no artificial caps.
- Free forever: available to all users from day one.
- Public: sent in the Slack channel of your choice so the whole organization can see.
Each Sparkle is a visible example of what your culture values, a thank-you that inspires others to do the same.
How It Works
- In Slack, write your recognition by tagging the person and using
++
or the ✨ Sparkle emoji. - Sparkle posts the recognition in your chosen channel, complete with a fun animation to celebrate the moment.
- The team reacts with emojis and comments, amplifying the impact of the original gesture.
- Values get reinforced: with auto-tagging, Sparkle can link each recognition to your organization’s core values.
Why It Matters
- Builds a culture of constant recognition: not just for special dates or events.
- Strengthens values: every Sparkle is a live example of what your organization promotes.
- Boosts motivation and retention: feeling seen and appreciated increases engagement.
- Accessible and simple: with no cost and no limits, anyone can recognize at any time.
Unlimited Sparkles are the foundation of Sparkle because recognition should never have barriers.
Culture is built one recognition at a time, and the easier it is to give one, the more natural it becomes.
