A HeyTaco Case Study
Ndustrial, an energy optimization platform with a hybrid team of 40 employees, faced the challenge of keeping its team connected and aligned with its four core values in a meaningful way. To move beyond just having values as words on a wall, they implemented HeyTaco, a peer recognition platform integrated with Slack or Microsoft Teams.
Using HeyTaco, employees gave each other "tacos" tagged to one of the four core values: Quality, Customer First, Teamwork, or Curiosity. This solution turned recognition into a daily, values-driven practice. The results included a more cohesive team, broken-down departmental silos, and better connectivity for remote workers. HeyTaco's reward system, where 25 tacos equaled a $25 gift card, drove adoption. The platform also enabled collective efforts where employees pooled tacos to donate 100 trees and save for team gifts, demonstrating the program's measurable cultural impact.
