Why it works, and why it never happens by itself
Recognition works best when it’s specific, timely and public: praise for a real thing, close to the moment it happened, where peers can see it. That’s exactly the shape of a five-star rating with the customer’s own words attached.
The problem is logistics: positive ratings land in a dashboard nobody refreshes, and saying “great job” depends on a manager remembering to go look. The wins are earned; they’re just invisible.
