I think many companies don't spend the time and effort looking at what is best and what reward programs are sustainable. I have found that communicating the thanks and pumping up people has more results than monetary awards or prizes. We also set team goals this has been a great success. When employees expect a reward they only perform correctly when being watched, for this reason I only give out monetary or prizes for new participation in programs or I give out a random crew award after observing from a distance. People like the recognition, even if it is just someone saying "Good Job" and "Thank you". Great stuff Alan!
