Minneapolis, MN (October 19, 2015) BI WORLDWIDE (BIW), a global engagement agency and the

leader in providing employee recognition solutions, released BUZZ®, a new native recognition app, at the

2015 HR Technology Conference & Expo in Las Vegas.

BUZZ is a mobile, social recognition platform designed to put workplace culture in the hands of

employees. With BUZZ, employees can see relevant stories, be a part of what’s happening around them,

engage in learning, take polls, give and receive awards and even track their happiness at work. BUZZ is

a true native app that makes employee recognition simple, immediate and social.

“In the dynamic nature of today’s work environment, it’s important to be integrated into employees’ day-

to-day lives. BUZZ bridges the gap between traditional recognition and social recognition on a unique,

mobile-only platform that encourages more connections, participation and sharing,” explains product

owner Linda Baer. “BUZZ gives employees a true sense of community where they can share what’s

going on with their daily work, show appreciation and recognize achievements – all while reinforcing

company values.”

BUZZ uses smart technology to serve up relevant content to employees based on what’s trending or

what’s going on around them. Employees can tag their teammates,friends or work groups and based on

their actions, BUZZ will show them the content that relates to their preferences.

Managers can use BUZZ to send announcements to communicate with employees everywhere. Quick

polls take the pulse of the company culture and quizzes make sure new learning is executed across the

organization.

“It’s built to be intuitive to use. There’s no instruction needed as it functions like many social apps,”

shared product design lead, Angie Koelbl. “One of the things we’re most excited about is the happiness

tracker where employees can check in and share how they are feeling that day. Managers can look at

summarized team results to get a real-time sense of what’s going on with their teams.”
