The challenge:

“We want colleague-to-colleague recognition…”

Involvement

Involvement, a UK-based packaging supplier with 80 employees, spans multiple brands offering Containers and Packaging, Fulfilment and Technology products and services.

With many colleagues working on the road or in warehouses, Involvement’s previous desk-based recognition system wasn’t effective.

Kinsey Petyt, Communications & Engagement Lead, faced mounting challenges with a manual, time-intensive process that hindered recognition and disengaged employees. That’s where Mo could help.

Involvement needed a solution to streamline their recognition processes.

Before partnering with Mo, Involvement relied on email, Yammer and Love to Shop gift cards for employee recognition. The process was cumbersome, to say the least:

  • Kinsey became a bottleneck, with manual approvals delaying rewards for up to a week.
  • Delays caused colleagues to stop recognising each other altogether, undermining the purpose of the system.
  • The system lacked inclusivity for non-desk-based employees, leaving many feeling overlooked.

Recognising the need for change, Kinsey sought a solution that could achieve three key improvements across the business:

  1. Create a more engaging and inclusive experience for all employees.
  2. Automate recognition and reward processes.
  3. Combine monetary rewards with public praise.

What led Involvement to Mo?

As an award-winning employee recognition platform, Mo proved to be the ideal software to address Involvement’s challenges. With our intuitive design, Mo enabled Involvement to:

  • Automate recognition: Colleagues could instantly recognise each other without delays.
  • Combine rewards with public praise: Recognition moments became more meaningful, building a stronger culture of appreciation.
  • Engage employees at all levels: Features like GIFs, emoji reactions and comments encouraged participation from everyone, creating a sense of fun and belonging.

Kinsey also highlighted Mo’s exceptional Customer Success team, Kim and Tahera, who gave her confidence in the platform from day one.

How does Mo’s platform work?

Make every Moment count.

Mo utilises social recognition to improve engagement and connection. A Moment is a post where employees share important personal or professional updates — such as weekly wins and weekend snaps. Moments build deeper connections and build genuine relationships with their teams by providing a platform for employees to showcase their accomplishments.

Drive performance through action.

A Boost is a prompt created by managers or admins in the Mo app to encourage employee engagement. These can range from reflective questions about weekly learnings to fun requests for pet photos. Boosts drive engagement with Moments, a key metric for Mo’s success. They allow managers to steer engagement and can be targeted to specific audiences, serving as a tool for both company-wide and team-specific communications.

Deskless workers

I know that colleague-to-colleague recognition has increased. People never used to recognise each other before, but now because it’s quite easy, they can do that themselves.
