2024 has tested every organization, and 2025 promises no less - the warning signs are everywhere. If you’re relying on superficial approaches to diversity, you might find yourself scrambling to catch up.

Onboarding and employee engagement- two buzzwords that you might constantly bring in your discussions. But what do they truly mean? How are they interconnected? It is critical to understand the link between them. One of the key reasons is that it sets the tone for new hires while they settle in a new environment.

Employee recognition has often been deemed a "feel-good" initiative, tied closely to rewards. While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance. In today’s workplace, the true ROI of recognition lies in its ability to regenerate tangible, business-driven results.
