What are the best methods when driving employee motivation? Employee motivation allows employers to retain employees, groom and train employees and maintain maximum productivity. Contrary to the opinions of many employers, cash bonuses are not the end-all-be-all of employee motivation. Employee recognition is the top motivation, with 78% of surveyed employees indicating they would work harder if they were recognized. Use small spot rewards, like small denomination gift cards to popular retailers like Speedway, AutoZone and Burlington Coat Factory to provide incentives that allow employees to pick their own rewards and treat themselves to something they wouldn't ordinarily buy.
