The workshop series will follow a four-city U.S. tour format which starts in Atlanta covers New York, Chicago, and ends in San Francisco. Globoforce has designed the "Building Your Culture of Recognition," series of workshops based on company culture inculcated within leading global organizations.

The workshops will be lead by employee recognition and rewards expert, Derek Irvine, who will illustrate how some of the leading companies across the globe have aligned their company culture with employee recognition. Derek, building on the proven methodology of Globoforce, will enlighten HR leaders on the merits of employee recognition and how it can be leveraged to benefit from increased employee engagement, which is the foundation of developing a strong work culture.

In a release, Derek Irvine, vice president of client strategy and consulting, Globoforce, said,  "All of us have a list of companies whose cultures we admire. They have engaged employees who live their values and brand in all they do. But culture doesn't just happen; it's earned and requires consistent management and pruning. Great company cultures don't need to be admired from afar. The seeds can be planted today, and I will show HR leaders how they can transform a company culture within a matter of months through employee recognition."
