The High Impact of Noncash Rewards

Presented by: Mike Ryan, SVP Madison Performance Group

Cash may be king, but when it comes to incentive awards, noncash awards often are more effective. Defined as awards that are administered apart from employees’ paychecks, noncash awards — which can include intangibles such as praise from a supervisor or workplace flexibility and nonmonetary compensation such as a gift cards or merchandise  – are flexible and impactful. In this webcast, Mike Ryan of the Madison Performance Group discusses how noncash enticements can be used to encourage better performance and boost returns on your organization’s compensation investment.
