Incentive Programs

Everyone knows that incentives work. Just tell a child they can't play until their homework is finished, and see how quickly it gets done. But how many of us really understand how powerful incentives are for changing or reinforcing behavior or accelerating performance for adults? The Incentive Research Foundation does. In 2002, The International Society for Performance Improvement summarized a study they had sponsored in the White Paper entitled, "Incentives, Motivation and Workplace Performance: Research & Best Practices".

The results of Incentive Programs were nothing short of astounding.

Incentives lead to a 27% increase in persistence in individuals working toward a goal, a 26% increase in "thinking smarter", and a 45% increase in Team performance. The study also demonstrated that while short term incentives of one week or less provided an immediate 20% jump in performance, incentives spanning one year or more yielded a startling 44% performance gain. The exhaustive research also demonstrated that tangible incentives dramatically spiked interest and enthusiasm for work - with 72% of the reward recipients indicating "very high satisfaction".

So what does that mean to your business, company or organization? Simply this. This empirical research proves if you have the right Incentive Programs, your people will work harder, smarter, longer and more cooperatively and enthusiastically to achieve the goals that you have set for them.

How do you pick the right Incentive Programs to foster these kinds or results? That part is simple too. You let us go to work for - and with - you. Together we'll find the right incentives to meet any need or objective, and we'll do it in a way that you can truly measure, and totally revel in the results they encourage.
