Exclusive Research: Employee Recognition Findings

Creative Group and the Incentive Research Foundation (IRF) partnered to bring you data on non-monetary incentive and recognition approaches of top-performing technology firms.

But what is clear, is that top-performing firms do slightly more. They spend more per employee and report utilizing more program structures.
