Are You Getting The Results You Expect?

Rewards and Recognition programs are key to building employee engagement, which leads to increased revenue, higher customer satisfaction and better productivity.

But how can you make sure that your rewards and recognition programs create the results you want?

There are varied types of incentive programs but each must contain specific elements in order to achieve optimum proficiency.

David will discuss the simple steps that you must take to make your incentives program a rewarding experience for both the employee and the organization.

Learn how:

  • How your culture can kill your rewards and recognition strategy and how to change your values so that they support your program.
  • What other things you need to be doing to support your rewards and recognition and make it a comprehensive approach that values your people.
  • To communicate about your rewards and recognition programs and why transparency and authenticity are vital.
  • Apply best and new practices for rewards and recognition from leading global companies.
