1001 Ways to Reward Employees
by Bob Nelson
Whether you manage a department, oversee a division, lead a company or run a family business with just only one employee, there’s an essential principle to follow that’s often overlooked: What most motivates the people who work for you is recognition.
A chock-full guide to rewards of every conceivable type for every conceivable situation, this book polls the whole of the American business community, finding innovative ideas in every corner; and from the spontaneous gesture of praise to formal company-wide programs, it presents hundreds of ways to say thank you to the people who truly deserve it.
This book is fantastic for every well-intentioned manager or frustrated employee. It makes a compelling case that recognition, rewards and positive reinforcement all do work and that they can work for you.
