    Great book full of easy to implement ideas to reward your teams and top performers. A fun book, that isn't designed to be "read". It is designed to be a resource for taking care of your teams!

    Good. A lot of research has gone into this book, scrounging around for little details on reward programmes. Well worth a read.

    Why is 1001 Ways to Reward Employees , with over 1.4 million copies in print, such an extraordinary bestseller? Because a little over ten years ago Bob Nelson took the seeds of an idea and turned it into something indispensable for business. The idea? That it’s not a raise that motivates an employee, and it’s not a promotion—what really sparks a person to perform are those intangible, unexpected gestures that signify real appreciation for a job well done. Now, after having worked with thousands of organizations in the years since 1 1001 Ways to Reward . . . was first published, Bob Nelson presents a second edition packed with hundreds of new ideas and examples of how companies are using rewards and recognitions to boost productivity and keep their valued employees happy. Airplane mechanics are rewarded with balloons and pinwheels. Another manager calls his employees’ mothers and thanks them for raising such industrious children. There are ideas from the offbeat (The Margarita Award) to the company-wide (a quiet room) to the embarrassingly simple (a hand-written thank you note) to the wacky (the Laugh-a-Day challenge) to the formal (a two-week promotion to special assistant to the president). Each section includes no-cost rewards and low-cost rewards, both public and private, making this new edition an indispensable resource for making the person/achievement/reward equation work.

    This book not only tells you how to reward employees but motivate them. I've tried some of the ideas and they worked (Short term) you must keep up with a plan every day? Week? or Month?
