What are Applauz Goals & Why Use Them

Applauz Goals work to motivate and keep employees on task. When a goal is completed, employees receive hard-earned Badges or Applauz Points.  

It feels great to strike a task off your to-do list. What feels even better is receiving a reward for a job well done.

Applauz Goals work to motivate and keep employees on task. When a goal is completed, employees receive hard-earned Applauz Points. 

Points can be redeemed in the Applauz Rewards Marketplace for a wide variety of high-quality brand-named gifts.

In this article, we will explore the basics of Applauz Goals, and how this feature can be used to take your recognition program to the next level!

When to Use Goals on Applauz

There are two key differences between Applauz Goals and other performance tracking tools. 

First, Goals are designed to be flexible. Managers can use the goals feature to formalize a variety of goals, not just work-related ones. Any task, mandate, or assignment or participation in a friendly contest can be made into a goal, for example:

  • Work-Related Goal (ex. Accomplish an assignment by a certain date)
  • Personal Growth Goal (ex. Read a book or article)
  • Professional Development Goal (ex. Take an online course)
  • Social Goals (ex. Organize a social event)

Second, and most notably, Applauz Goals work with Recognition Points.

Once a Goal is completed, the employee is rewarded with Points. Points are your program's recognition currency and are redeemable for gifts in the Applauz Marketplace.
