NJIT’s Highlander High Five Appreciation and Recognition Program
The new Highlander High Five Appreciation and Recognition Programenables employees to recognize their colleagues for going over and beyond and exhibiting other exemplary workplace behavior. The program also supports NJIT’s 2030 strategy, by recognizing faculty and staff who exhibit the university’s core values. These behaviors, in addition to NJIT’s core values, may include but are not limited to:
Exhibiting exemplary customer service
Exhibiting discretionary behavior or extraordinary effort, which are not part of the job description, and are performed by the employee as a result of personal choice
Behavior that goes above and beyond that which may be expected requirement of the individual’s position requirements
Contributing positively to overall organizational effectiveness
To recognize one of your NJIT colleagues simply utilize the Workday feedback function and select the Highlander High Five Badge.
Upon submission, Human Resources will review your feedback request for approval. The recognized employee will also receive a Highlander High Five certificate of appreciation and recognition. Please note that you are able to select multiple names for the feedback recognition.
All full and part-time staff and full time faculty are eligible to receive this just-in-time recognition. Employees recognized through the Highlander High Five Appreciation and Recognition Program will also have their names listed on the NJIT Community Updates and Announcements weekly newsletter.
For questions, please submit a ticket through Highlander Nexus.
