Rewarding Employees Without Breaking the Bank

 

Description

Your wallet is empty? And you still need to boost your team's performance?

Building team morale is difficult in these tough economic times. This presentation helps participants solve their team morale problem with ideas for rewarding their team members without breaking the bank.

Even with the best reward ideas, rewards can fall flat if they are not suitable to the person, the organization, the situation, or the magnitude of the accomplishment. Participants will learn the four key factors that will maximize the impact of their rewards, and the secrets to guarantee delighted recipients. Finally, participants will learn the eight categories of non-monetary rewards, including several ideas for reward options in each category that cost under $20!
