Recognition

Recognition is GreekManage's built-in shout-out feature. Members and officers send recognitions to teammates for milestones, contributions, or just appreciation.

Where to find Recognition

In your sidebar: Community → Recognition.

The Recognition feed shows:

  • Recent recognitions across your chapter
  • Top recognized members this month
  • Categories your org uses (e.g., "Brotherhood/Sisterhood," "Academic Excellence," "Service")

The recognition feed. The recognition feed.

Send a recognition

  1. Click Send recognition.
  2. Pick the recipient(s) — start typing a name and choose from the autocomplete.
  3. Pick a category.
  4. Write a short message (1–3 sentences works best).
  5. (Optional) Attach a photo.
  6. Choose visibility: Chapter-wide or Direct (private to recipient).
  7. Click Send.

The recipient gets a notification. Public recognitions appear on the feed.

Categories

Categories are configured by your org admin. Common ones:

  • Above & Beyond — exceptional contribution
  • Sisterhood / Brotherhood — community spirit
  • Service — philanthropy or volunteering
  • Academic — grades, research, presentations

If your org uses a custom category list, you'll see those instead.

View someone's recognitions

Open any member's profile. The Recognitions tab shows everything they've received.

Reacting

You can react to public recognitions with a 👏 or ❤️. Reactions are visible; they don't notify the recipient.

Pinning

Officers can pin a recognition to the top of the chapter feed for visibility.

Tips

  • Be specific. "Thanks for organizing the formal — your work on the venue made it memorable" beats "Great job!"
  • Use direct recognitions for sensitive thanks; the recipient still gets it but the chapter doesn't see.
