# Give Recognition

### Recognize Your Colleagues

Users can give recognition awards from the **Recognition Module**, via the **Universal Compose Button**, and even directly from the recipient user(s) **Profile** or **Team Page**.

From the **Recognitions Module**, click the **Give Recognition** button along the top right of your screen. This will bring up the **Recognize People or Team** menu.

From this menu, users will have limited customization options for the awards they wish to give. These options include recognizing an individual or team, craft a personalized message (up to 1,000 characters), and highlighting core values this person/team exemplified.&#x20;

Review the award before sending by clicking the **Preview** button along the bottom of the pop-up menu.
