Paul Hebert rants Cash Isn't the Best Award

PaulHebertNewFOT

Once again I see a discussion on what are the “best” awards to use in a recognition and reward program. This is the Jason of motivation questions.  Just when you think you've answered it… it gets asked again and again.

I've been involved in the incentive and reward industry for more years than I care to brag about but I can say without any reservation the question of “what award to use”

 has been asked and answered at least each and every week of each and every year I’ve been in the biz.  It makes me wonder if people are still figuring out how to use Google or they can’t find a good book on what drives people to do the things they do.  It’s like we hear the answer and we don’t like it so we ask the question again hoping for a different answer.
