Rewarding Teams cover

Using actual case studies from a variety of leading companies, Rewarding Teams provides a blueprint for building team reward programs that spur development and success. The book focuses on the three most important types of team-based rewards programs--recognition plans, project team incentives, and group incentives--offering readers detailed advice on how they can create and implement such programs themselves. Twenty-seven profiles of team reward and recognition plans from today's top companies give readers an in-depth look at how these plans work in actual practice. They also provide the basis for the set of best principles included in the final chapter.

"In today's world, where virtual, global teams are often the norm, Rewarding Teams delivers reward and recognition strategies that can make a real difference in the effective management of teams-a necessity for individuals and organization in the twenty-first century." --Tim Walker, director, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Center for Leadership Development

" 'Lessons from the Trenches' are the operative words here: the authors have spent a lot of time in companies, seeing what works and what doesn't. If you're trying to figure out how to reward you company's teams-and these days, who isn't?-this is the book for you." --John Case, executive editor, Harvard Business School Publishing

"At last, a book that demonstrates how two dozen top companies use rewards to make teams work. A useful handbook for human resource and line managers alike." --Jon R. Katzenbach, senior partner, Katzenbach Partners LLC
