Introduction

Neuroscience shows that verbal affirmations have a similar impact on the brain as financial rewards. There is ample evidence across several studies stating that recognizing team efforts and complimenting members can create a positive company culture.  But the same studies also show that only 50% of the survey participants could gather the courage to send the compliments they had written for their team members.

We’ve all heard that a simple compliment can make a big difference, and yet we are terrified of coming across awkwardly while showing appreciation or undermine the impact it can have on the other person. In the workplace, this can get even trickier. Hence to simplify your company communication and boost company morale, today’s app review presents the Hi5 app.  

It is an easy-to-use and highly affordable company recognition platform that helps build a recognition culture at work. Hi5 also simplifies analyzing company performance and which company values employees relate to the most.

How to use Hi5 App to grow your company culture? 

The center premise of Hi5 is to simplify the process of giving and receiving recognition and feedback. Instead of filling lengthy forms and writing one on one emails, the Hi5 company recognition app makes all company interactions creatively engaging and human. Here are some ways companies can use different Hi5 tools to simplify company communications: 

Features-of-Hi5-App

1. Wall of Fame

You can view every recognition given to different employees on the Wall of Fame as you start the app. 

2. Recognition Dashboard

You can view who has given or received the most Hi5s, and to get weekly or monthly comparisons, Hi5 offers filters for date, department, and office. 

3. Hi5s by Culture

You can view the most tagged values across different interactions, which can help you see where the company culture is going and which values need promotions. 

4. Pulses

Hi5 Pulse is a customizable micro-survey tool that you can use to measure just about anything at the company. While Hi5 offers its library of templates, you can also create a pulse from scratch. You can use pulses for client feedback, performance reviews, and goal tracking. When people fill these pulses, the data points aggregate into reports, making it easy to view company and team performance dynamics. 

5. External Hi5s

You can receive client feedback from non-Hi5 users by sending external links for pulses and Hi5s. 

6. Notice Board

Hi5 ensures you never miss birthdays, work anniversaries, notices, events, and deadlines for when pulses need to be completed. 

7. Notices

With the Hi5 Notice Board feature, you can send out announcements to employees, according to specific departments, offices, roles, or permissions. You can also create and send Notices via the Hi5 Microsoft Teams app.

8. People Directory

You can view all of your co-worker’s profiles, including their notes and some information about them. Hi5’s People Directory also offers the Organogram section that shows you a preview of the entire company and how every employee fits into the company tree. 

9. Manage

Hi5 Manage section lets you view and edit employee details, including their names, phone number, birthday, email address, title, and personal description. You can also change the manager for each employee and their permission, department, role, or office. 

10. Integrations

You can add Hi5 to WhatsApp, Microsoft Teams, and Slack. 

  • WhatsApp integration: As the only recognition platform to have this integration, Hi5 allows you to give Hi5s and tag company values anytime on the go. Just add a number as a contact, say hi, then give a Hi5 and tag company values. It will be directly shown on the Wall of Fame. 
  • Microsoft Teams integration: You can give and view Hi5s, add values, and even complete Pulses using Microsoft Teams. 
  • Slack integration: Pretty much every task performed using Microsoft Teams, Slack allows for it too. Just add a channel dedicated to Hi5 on Slack, and you can view all of the sent Hi5s, and get reminders. Giving Hi5s using Slack is super easy: Use the /hi5 command, mention a colleague, write your message and hashtag gif to send a recognition message from any Slack channel or conversation. The Hi5 team uses their Slack integration as well!
