Why Terryberry

Helping Organizations Build High-Performing Teams

Terryberry is the only company delivering engagement programs built on a research-validated model of the six factors proven to drive retention, productivity, and a culture employees don't want to leave.

Many engagement initiatives are disjointed. The reality is that recognition, wellness, and listening tools sitting in separate systems don't add up to a culture. The moments that make employees feel genuinely valued only work when they’re connected.

Terryberry revolves around this belief. We design and deliver comprehensive employee engagement programs that connect recognition, custom symbolic awards, rewards, well-being, and listening so you can build a better culture—with the data to prove it.

"Terryberry helped us build an employee engagement platform that's been a resounding success. Even some of the traditionally more skeptical employees are sharing kudos for their colleagues on the open platform, and that's a big win for our culture and retention!"

Gabi Rae, Town of Erie

"We’re incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved together with Terryberry... It feels like we’ve just scratched the surface of what’s possible with Terryberry when it comes to valuing and applauding the people who make Amteck what it is."

Matt Noble, Amteck

OUR HISTORY

A Century of Helping People Feel Valued at Work

Terryberry started as a custom jewelry manufacturer in Grand Rapids, Michigan, making pieces people keep forever. What began as a single product has evolved into programs that connect multiple facets of engagement—because we know that while recognition moments are powerful, lasting engagement requires more.

Over the past 100+ years, that foundation of meaningful recognition has grown into something much larger: a comprehensive approach to engagement that helps build cultures where people genuinely want to stay and do their best work.

"The best cultures aren't the ones that get talked about the most, they're the ones people don't want to leave. Earlier in my career, I worked somewhere that prided itself on protecting its culture. It taught me something lasting: you can't protect what you're not actively building. This is the work I get to do at Terryberry—helping organizations create workplaces where people choose to stay."
