Corporate incentives motivating staff company incentive packages employee motivational prizes and incentive awards

The Donkey will pull the cart if you threaten him with a stick - but is that real motivation?

However, the Donkey may well pull the cart more efficiently if you hung a carrot in front of him.  

In the tough economic conditions we now face, the value of staff motivation and encouragement have never been more important.

The Maslow theory on motivation stated that you cannot motivate a person - motivation can only come from within.  You can however use persuasion to motivate a person by either threats of dismissal or a reward.  Threats can have the opposite effect and increase stubbiness & a "don't careless attitude", which is counter productive & obviously not good for your business profits.

Company incentives, rewards and annual prizes have proved over the years to have achieved greater motivation in an employee to succeed and do well - thereby increasing your company productivity.

Why Cash Payments Fail

Competitive pay and a comprehensive benefits package are great recruitment and retention tools, but money is not effective in keeping employees motivated. New research reveals the value of allowing peak performers to "earn the right to indulge" using travel and merchandise rewards.
 

An effective Employee motivational method

One effective way of motivating employees is to provide staff company incentives, rewards and prizes for excellent performance and recognition for a job well done. We sometimes forget these tools because we feel that our staff are paid to do a good job already. In the rush to move on to the next job that needs to be done, we also forget to say thank you. Corporate Incentive schemes achieve both of these areas, recognition and appreciation rewarded with a prize.
 

corporate Incentives do produce results, and work especially well if you are trying to promote staff efficiency or achieving specific targets and goal.
 

Why use an incentive package?

We are living in a new century! In today's highly competitive marketplace, it can be difficult to make a sale. Just being aggressive doesn't cut it any longer. Sales skills alone aren't enough to compete when so many new products and services become everyday commodities. Consumers are smarter and better educated.

 

Employing an incentives package can help take your business to the next level. A simple challenge between 2 salesmen can encourage them to go far beyond what they had even thought possible. When your employees are happy, they work better, and when your employees work better, they are more productive. A corporate incentive package is an easy and appealing way to boost employee motivation.
