Values & Tags
Value tags in Mellowe are flexible, organic, and 100% free-text. There is no rigid admin setup required—team members decide for themselves what values, principles, or hashtags to include in their recognition messages.
How Free-Text Tags Work
Section titled “How Free-Text Tags Work”Whenever you recognize a teammate in Slack, simply add any hashtag (#tagname) directly in your message to highlight the value or reason behind your appreciation.
Examples:
Section titled “Examples:”@morgan Thanks for working late to get the security audit completed on time! 🥭 #integrity@alex @sam Amazing job refactoring the database handler! 🥭 #200iq #teamwork@taylor Thank you for stepping up during the client demo! 🥭 #customer-firstBenefits of Free-Text Tagging
Section titled “Benefits of Free-Text Tagging”- Zero Setup Required: Admins don’t need to manually configure or maintain a list of core values.
- Expressive Culture: Team members can celebrate official company values (e.g.,
#integrity) or organic team moments (e.g.,#200iq,#clutch,#ownership). - Automatic Recognition Parsing: Mellowe automatically detects and parses any hashtag included in your recognition message.
- Wall of Impact Filtering: Every hashtag automatically creates an interactive filter chip on the Wall of Impact, allowing your team to explore stories by value without ranking individuals per virtue.
