Recognize colleagues by sending bravos

Recognize colleagues publicly with bravos and celebrate their great work in the company-wide feed.

Anyone in your company can send a bravo to thank a colleague for their work. Every bravo is posted to the company-wide feed, where everyone can see it and react to it.

Note: If you don't see bravos in the navigation, the feature is turned off for your company. Ask your Tellent HR Grow admin to turn on bravos in Settings > Features.

Send a bravo

Follow these steps to send a bravo:

Open Tellent HR Grow and select Bravos in the navigation.

In the Write a bravo box at the top of the feed, choose the category that best fits the recognition:

  • Great work – Solid delivery worth calling out

  • On fire – Crushing it right now

  • Team player – Went out of their way to help

  • Above & beyond – Exceeded what anyone expected

  • Celebrate – A milestone worth a party

  • Great idea – Brought a smart idea or fresh perspective

Type @ and select at least one colleague you want to recognize. You can @mention several colleagues in one bravo. You can't send a bravo without @mentioning someone.

In the same box, write a short message that explains what they did and why it mattered.

Click Send bravo. Your bravo appears in the company-wide bravos feed.

Tip: Be specific. Mention the action and its impact, for example, “Thanks for jumping in on the client demo at the last minute and keeping it on track.”

Use the bravos feed

The bravos feed is company-wide, so everyone in your company can view and react to recognition shared by colleagues:

  • React to a bravo with an emoji.

  • Use the filters above the feed to find bravos by recipient or by sender, choose a time period, or change the sort order.

  • Look for bravos about you. They’re highlighted in a distinct color

Tip: Preparing for a self-review? Filter the feed by recipient and select your name to see all the bravos you've received. Managers can do the same for their team members.

Edit or delete a bravo

You can edit or delete bravos you sent:

In the bravos feed, find the bravo you sent.

Click the three-dot menu on the bravo.

Select EDIT to change the bravo, or DELETE to remove it.

Deleted bravos can't be restored.

Only the person who sent a bravo can edit it. You can't edit or delete a bravo someone else sent, even if it's about you.

If a bravo about you is incorrect, ask the sender to edit it. If it's inappropriate, contact your HR team. Users with HR permissions can delete any bravo.

Go to Settings > Features.

Turn the bravos toggle on or off.
