You need their buy in... Or it could go horribly

wrong!

Create a "fun" event that eats into family time...

"That isn't going to make anyone happy!"

Points given to employees for overtime - which are swapped for promotional items! "The value of my time is a gift

bag???"

How it goes wrong...

Wearing "cubs" style achievement ribbons -

and chant company mantra - "This is a company - not Boy

Scouts!"

Reward top salesman with a weekend retreat...

Where they have to share a room to save

money... "We bring in the sales - and you scrimp on

us"!
