This book described my work environment to a "T". You can drive yourself dizzy motivating your employees with certificates, gifts, or money and they still don't perform to your expectations. 365 Ways To Motivate And Reward discusses the motivators, which drive a person to work. The book advises managers to fit recognition to their staff's motivators. Helpful surveys, provided in the book, can reveal employees' motivators and guide you to the appropriate form of recognition. It further stresses that recognition begins with daily interaction. The tips for recognition that the book provides are mind-boggling. Tips range from one-year of dog food to senior management washing employees' cars. It seemed silly to me at first, but these suggestions beat a boring certificate and they probably make a bigger impact. It is a chore getting educated on the book's theories and putting its practices into action, but it's worth the effort if it results in better productivity and smiling employees.

This is one of those books where you expected one thing and are pleasantly surprised to receive something else. Well, not entirely something else, there certainly is a list of 322 (not 365!) ways to motivate your employees, but that's the last half of the book. The first half is a great business book on motivation and the necessity to create a motivational work environment.
In fact, I found the fist half of the book more interesting than the second half and I say that without knocking the second half whatsoever. 365 covers motivational theory, internal and external motivational factors, management methods and also provides a series of motivational questions to ask employees and new hires to ensure you are able to provide the best motivational environment for their needs. The second half of 365 covers a number of easy-to-do motivational rewards. While most businesses won't be able to do all of them there are a number of cheap and easy ideas that every business should implement. Not stopping with their own list, the book concludes with a monthly calendar of special days that will allow you to make your own motivational rewards. Regardless of your work environment, every company can use a few motivational tips. 365 provides 322 of them and a framework to create hundreds more of your own. This is a book that won't be put on my bookshelf, but will remain close by as a reference for things I can do to reward my employees.

Excellent book! Dianna Podmoroff's book "365 Ways to Motivate and Reward Your Employees Every Day: With Little or No Money" is a must have more every organization. I would recommend this book to everyone in management. As someone who has to watch the bottom line very closely in my company I found that Dianna's book has several excellent ideas to tap into peoples feeling of being acknowledged and rewarded. I have already passed this book on to my Executive Team for us to get started on some of Dianna's great ideas.
