Employee Incentives - Know What to Offer

By Linda Matraz

Have you ever questioned why or if employee incentive travel is more advantageous than a cash bonus? Is there more to incentive travel than just compensating employee(s) for a job well done?

Discerning the things that motivate your employees is a crucial feature of conducting business. It is crucial to learn just what motivates each person as an individual. If the incentive were a trip, where would your employees like to visit? Would they like to be pampered with a spa vacation, go on a cruise to exotic destinations, or is he more fascinated by out-of-doors activities such as water sports or golf? Modifying the incentives you offer is more likely to push employees to do their finest to get the trip.

Incentive travel is a reason in holding valued workers members. It is more cost effective to hold onto skilled persons working for you instead of to train new employees on a regular basis. Thanking employees for a job well done is something else that should not be overlooked. Those two words can motivate employees on toward a common goal, particularly through tough times.

Team efforts that earn a fantastic trip for everybody involved further the weaker members to work toward the skill level of the stronger team members. Contests can inspire but they can also make staff to work against each other. Cooperative efforts sometimes get more desirable results and turn out employees who are more loyal too.

An all inclusive cruise meeting is one great way to motivate and thank employees. Putting together a corporate event such as a conference or a business meeting at sea makes a lot of sense, especially when it comes to getting the greatest value from the investments. Cruising can literally slash the cost of land based venues by 25-40%, allowing planners to persevere with today's shrinking budgets. Why not make your next corporate incentive event a meeting-at-sea? - 29942
