You can use *Shoutouts* to recognize teammates across your organization when they go above and beyond. Giving a shoutout is a great way to show recognition and appreciation to the people that you work with.

## Give someone a shoutout

When you submit a shoutout, you write up a quick paragraph and post it to your teammate's employee profile. The shoutout displays on their employee profile and is visible to anyone who views their profile.

When your organization is integrated with Slack, shoutouts are also automatically posted in a public channel for your entire organization to see.
