Why recognition pays off: The data behind retention programs and performance
Gallup's 2024 analysis shows structured recognition lowers high-performer turnover by 45%, boosting engagement and retention in organizations facing high churn.
- Gallup researchers' 2024 analysis found implementing a structured recognition program provides the `loyalty anchor` needed to stabilize teams and reduces high‑performing employees' exit by 45%.
