Sneak Peek: The Kudos 2026 Recognition Impact Report

An exclusive first look at what recognition with Kudos is delivering to organizations. 

Recognition is changing how work feels, and we have the data to prove it.

About the Research:

Recognition is widely deployed and rarely studied properly. We wanted evidence from the people living with it every day.

In partnership with Leger, an independent research firm, this new research from Kudos users and organizational leaders aims to better understand what's driving impact from recognition.

What's inside:

  • 91% say recognition reflects their organization's actual values
  • 84% see culture measurably shift
  • 74% see engagement improve

This downloadable PDF provides an exclusive first look into just three of the key findings from Kudos' 2026 Customer Impact & ROI Study. The full results of the survey will be released in Fall 2026, and you’ll be one of the first to get the full report.
