This core component displays a stacked bar chart over time, providing a clear dynamic view of recognition activity. The Y-axis quantifies the number of awards received, ranging from 0.0 to 3.0 in the observed media. The X-axis is segmented into weekly periods, such as '22 Dec - 28 Dec', '5 Jan - 11 Jan', '2 Feb - 8 Feb', '16 Mar - 22 Mar', and '23 Mar - 29 Mar', allowing for easy tracking of recognition trends over specific timeframes. The grouping of these periods can be adjusted to show weeks or months, depending on the selected duration and filters.

Each stacked bar visually represents the total awards for a given period, with different colors indicating contributions from individual team members. A clear legend at the bottom identifies each contributor: 'Lisa Jones' (purple), 'Michael Smith' (green), 'Emily Davis' (blue), and 'Jason Miller' (orange). This breakdown allows for quick identification of who is receiving recognition.
