"How can companies ensure that their recognition programs not only celebrate individual achievements, but also promote teamwork and collaboration within the organization?"

Companies can ensure that their recognition programs promote teamwork and collaboration by creating a system that rewards both individual achievements and contributions to team success. This can be achieved by incorporating team-based goals and metrics into the recognition criteria. Additionally, companies can encourage peer-to-peer recognition to foster a culture of teamwork and collaboration. Regularly communicating the importance of teamwork and collaboration in achieving organizational goals can also help reinforce these values within the recognition program.
