RECOGNITION WORKS!

We give an award to the top sales guy, to the person with 25 years of service, to the truck driver with 1 million miles without a chargeable accident. We believe in the power of recognition. The why we do it may seem obvious, but it is a lot more than that.

We use recognition to:

  • Create a culture within the company that affects every attitude.

  • Say thanks and applaud success.

  • Teach others what we as an organization want to achieve.

  • Increase retention of employees.

  • Support Mission and Values.

  • Engage employees.

  • Encourage loyalty.

  • Increase customer satisfaction.

  • In summation, we believe in using recognition everyday to improve the bottom line. If that's important to you, then we're speaking the same language. Come with us on this journey.

    How is that made? Custom Awards: FORD

    Have you ever wondered how a custom award was made? We make lots of awards in our facility, but cast awards are made in a foundry. I know there is a perception that all awards come from the far east, out of some sweat shop as if by magic, but the reality is far from it. The best quality awards are made right here in the USA, by hand, and the process is complicated and elaborate. Check out the video from Ford of their top mechanics award: Ford Video, . The Bruce Fox Company is a factory making custom awards that is a partner of RCB Awards and has been for over 15 years. The process they describe in the video is a common one for cast awards made from a mold. The video walks through the whole process. Check it out. We use the foundry at Bruce Fox any time we have a cast award, as their mold makers are the best in the industry.
