Research Report |
| |
A
landmark study on the $27 billion dollar incentive industry
entitled Incentives, Motivation and Workplace Performance:
Research and Best Practices, showed that tangible incentives
dramatically increase work performance by an average of
22%. The research was sponsored by the International Society
for Performance Improvement. Other findings which employers
will find especially useful in these times of uncertainty
include: |
| |
• Incentive
programs aimed at individual workers increase performance
by 27%; when directed at teams, the increase is 45%.
• Incentive programs
have an equal, positive impact on both quality and quantity
goals.
• Long term incentive
programs are more powerful than short term programs (44%
gain versus 20%).
• Incentive programs
structured with employee input work best; however, only
23% of incentive systems were selected with employee input.
|
| |
Another
study was done which addressed the critical issue of Measurement
of Return on Investment of incentive programs. The study,
"Determining the Return on Investment of Incentive
Travel Programs", coordinated by SITE Canada, focuses
on the approaches to measuring ROI as well as the findings
of a survey of executives responsible for incentive programs,
and provides a hands on template for measuring ROI on such
programs. |
|
Another
study was done about a Motivation for Excellence Survey
to assess which motivational tactics are used most often,
employee awareness of external motivation tactics and how
employees rate their employers in the area of motivation.
The findings include: |
| |
• Eighty-five
percent of employees agree that their level of motivation
has an impact on either the quality or quantity of their
work.
• 59% believe their company
does not do enough to motivate.
• 75% say that a formal
motivation program would be beneficial.
• Work/life balance and
employer recognition are among the most used motivational
tactics.
• Receiving special training,
education or professional development is highly valued as
a meaningful reward for a job well done. |

How
to motivate your sales force, during your promotions and
use vacation incentives to get them moving more volume |
|
Incentive
Travel programs deliver ROI to the participating business
like no other!
|
|
Travel
has a significantly greater perceived value, trophy
value, and ‘shelf-life’ to the end
users as they anticipate, travel, and share the memories
with colleagues and friends. The cost effectiveness and
residual value to the participating business of Vacation
travel as an incentive will reflect directly on the bottom
line. |
| |
Travel
Incentives have a huge perceived value advantage over cash
or goodies.They have real trophy value and shelf life to
the travel user and reflect positively on their sponsor,
brand or employer. They extend their value outside the actual
awardees to family members and colleagues. Cash has poor
Motivational Power as it is almost always viewed as a part
of ‘normal compensation’, an entitlement that
is due the employee regardless of performance. Once this
pattern of reward is established, it becomes difficult to
change or terminate. |
|
The
value of every dollar committed to travel incentives far
outreaches the actual dollar cost,precisely because of its
perceived value, the luxury status that it enjoys and the
real discounts made available by the travel industry. Seasonal
spikes, new product launches and advertising campaigns benefit
directly from the addition of a travel incentive layer. |
|
Great
employees deliver loyalty in spades, simply because they
know that along with the benefits to their company, goes
their personal salary and bonus.A network of discouraged
or under-performing employees affects the entire team in
subtle but profound ways.Investing in incentive programs
that are innovative, motivational and personal brings big-payoffs
in both the short and long term. |
| |
Relationships
take time to build, need to be nurtured and must be genuine
in order to have lasting impact. Travel, as an incentive,
is the most sought after reward to use when recognizing
employees who go ‘above and beyond’. |
