Boosting Employee Enthusiasm

Does your team appear to have less enthusiasm than they used to?

Did you ever think about an employee incentive program?

Give this a try…

Set some specific goals with an appropriate timeline. The goal could be something like increased sales or increased productivity, over a one month period. Then pick some rewards or even ask the employees to choose items like jackets and work shirts from a group that you have already pre-selected.

Then you will add your embroidered company logo and maybe even a special tag line created just for this challenge.

Start the program so everyone on the team knows the rules. As the members earn the items, create some kind of special ceremony for handing out the rewards and giving attention to that individual.

As the team member wears the item around work everyone else on the team knows that they hit their targets, thus giving them more attention and recognition. Remember, most people are motivated by emotional factors and not money. The added feeling of accomplishment received by being given the special reward along with repeated attention it bring when worn at work, will continue to motivate that person beyond just the date the item was given out.

In this case everybody wins!
