## The Recognition

Hey team, I want to take a moment to publicly recognise [Individual Name / Team Name] for an outstanding piece of work.

**What they did:**
[Be specific. Instead of "great job on the project", describe exactly what was accomplished. For example: "[Name] led the migration of our entire client database from [Old System] to [New System] over the past three weeks. This involved mapping 47 custom fields, writing validation scripts to ensure data integrity, and coordinating with six department heads to verify their records. The migration was completed two days ahead of schedule with zero data loss."]

**Why it matters:**
[Connect the achievement to a business outcome or value. For example: "This migration has eliminated the double-handling that was costing our admin team approximately 8 hours per week and gives us a single source of truth for all client information. It also sets the foundation for the automated reporting we have been planning."]

**What stood out:**
[Highlight the behaviours or qualities that made this exceptional. For example: "What impressed me most was [Name]'s approach to stakeholder communication throughout the process. Every department knew exactly what was happening, when it would affect them, and what they needed to do. There were no surprises, no missed steps, and no complaints. That level of planning and communication is exactly the standard we aspire to as a team."]

## Additional Notes

[Optional: mention any reward, bonus, or further recognition. For example: "As a small token of appreciation, [Name] will receive [reward, e.g. a $100 gift voucher / an extra day of leave / lunch on the company]. Well deserved."]

Thank you, [Name/Team], for raising the bar. Work like this is what sets us apart.

[Your Name]
[Your Title]
