This guide is for all users.

Discover the simplicity of acknowledging your colleagues' achievements, big or small, with the Kudos feature in Breathe! 🎉

At Breathe, we prioritise promoting a healthy company culture by placing employees' needs at the forefront of our platform.

Included in this guide:

Kudos is a straightforward way to share and give praise across your company with just a click.

If you think an employee or an entire department has excelled, spread the Kudos and recognise their accomplishments.

Navigate to an employee's profile > More > Kudos to view who awarded it, when, the type, and the accompanying message.

The latest awarded Kudos can also be seen in the Community menu option

If you don't have an employee of the month scheme, leverage Kudos to kickstart the recognition process.

Monthly reports on awarded Kudos help identify individuals who have exceeded expectations in the eyes of their peers.

Share the joy by sending someone Kudos!

The feature allows all users to publicly praise others individually or by department. Click your user icon > Give Kudos, select the recipient, add a friendly message, and share the Kudos!

The Kudos feature enables all users to publicly praise other employees within their organisation. It’s quick and simple way of giving some appreciation. This can be done individually or by department.

Click on the star icon on the right of the Breathe search bar to give Kudos:

Select who you would like to give Kudos to and then add your friendly message.

Recipients receive an email and a dashboard notification about the kind words.

When giving departmental Kudos, all in the department are recognised, excluding the author if within that department.

Other employees can also like each other's Kudos by using the thumbs-up icon on the Kudos record.

Through the Breathe People Portal mobile app, you can send and receive Kudos, check your standing on the leaderboard, and view earned Kudos badges.

Kudos can be accessed in the app by going to More > Kudos

Reflect your company culture by creating custom Kudos types. Go to Configure > Settings > Picklists > Kudos types to add values aligned with your company's ethos.

Here you can add in the values you'd like to be reflected within your account as a type of Kudos.

If you believe an awarded Kudos is inappropriate or not in keeping with your company culture, you can delete it from the employee's profile.

This can be done by navigating to the employee Profile > More > Kudos. Edit or delete Kudos using the pencil or bin icon.

Access the latest Kudos leaderboard through the star icon or the trophy icon on the community dashboard. The leaderboard displays those awarded the most Kudos in the last 30 days (it's based on a rolling 30 days).

If you have an employee of the month scheme, the Kudos leaderboard can help identify high achievers recognised by their peers.

Who can view the leaderboard and what does it display? Well all employees have access to the Kudos leaderboard and it will display those who have been awarded the most Kudos within the last 30 days.

We appreciate that Kudos is not for everyone, so this is why you have the option to switch Kudos off.

This can be done by going to Configure > Settings > Modules and toggling the Kudos switch.

Under Reports > Performance reports, find two Kudos reports for individual and departmental Kudos. These reports offer insights into given Kudos individually and by department.
