Employee Incentives Audio Conference on CD

Learn the secrets with this practical 90-minute audio conference recording, as our speaker – an expert on employee incentive and motivation programs - will walk you through the steps in creating effective “carrots” for your workforce. You’ll learn how many employers define and set up effective employee incentives, as well as how you can encourage your workers to become more productive without breaking your HR budgets in the process.
