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.
