We’re excited to bring you the latest updates from Empuls, designed to enrich your experience and drive better engagement across your organization.

Here’s what’s new:

  1. ​
    Quid Pro Quo Prevention

We’ve launched Quid Pro Quo, a feature designed to ensure fairness by preventing immediate reciprocal recognitions, promoting a balanced recognition cycle and protecting your budget. How It Works:
  • Fairness in Action: Once someone gives a recognition, the recipient cannot immediately reciprocate. The person who made the recognition will also be unable to reward the same individual for a set period (as determined).
  • Preventing Unfair Cycles: This ensures mutual recognition isn’t abused, preventing a quick back-and-forth cycle of awards.
  • Maintaining Budget Integrity: Track and manage reciprocal nominations to ensure your recognition budget is used wisely.
