How can I recognize a colleague through SMILE App?

How can I recognise a colleague through SMILE App?This is the most important question and this is why SMILE app exists! You can recognise anyone through2 interesting ways! It all starts with you clicking on the ‘Recognise Someone Now’ button on the Homescreen and that’s when you see the 2 options on screen with JOY smiling above it 1) scan yourcolleague’s QR code (which automatically opens up the camera for a ready scan!) or b) search him or herby name.

Once you spot your colleague’s profile, click on ‘Send Smiles Now’ – and you will land on the recognitionscreen where you can choose the points, select the service standard badge that your colleague deservesand leave a comment to show them you truly mean it. #SpreadingSMILEs

How many points can I give someone?

Now that’s a good question to have. You can see 3 options for points in the recognition screen, and that’s 5, 10 & 15, right? It’s a simple trick. If you think that the recognition-worthy experience that your colleague delivered was awesome, then go for 5. If you think your colleague went over and beyond awesomeness, then they deserve 10 points. Now if this amazing colleague of yours did something that INTERNAL made you think ‘Wow! That was really some out-of-the-world service’ then don’t think twice, close your eyes and click on 15. Boom!

I pressed on the wrong name by accident, can I change a recognition after it has been sent?

SMILE app is a platform to consciously spread SMILEs through recognizing each other. Keeping that in mind, be as caring as possible when you recognise a person. In case you realised you recognised the wrong colleague, Just drop a message via the ‘contact us’ option here within the Help centre, and either JOY or our app admin will get this sorted for you.

What is 'SMILE Tools' or the <insert SMILE icon> that I see on every screen?

The SMILE Tools button is our GPS guide directing us to reach our ultimate destination where no bankhas gone before (remember from the training?). To be on track, we ensured it is embedded on everysingle screen within the app. It is a reminder of our new strategic service framework that consists of ourCommon Purpose, Service Standards, Leader Behaviours and our ‘Daily huddle’ calendar.

What is the "Scan Me" feature?
