Just give the journalists popcorn
Posted by Jean Yves Chainon on September 26, 2007 at 10:27 AM
There’s no better way to encourage staff than with a well-deserved reward. The Washington Post has come up with its own: coupons to the nearby popcorn stand.
Post editors and managers can reward their employees by giving them tickets for either a free box of popcorn or a free 16-ounce cup of coffee. They must purchase the tickets by batches of 10.
It’s $11 for the popcorn batch and $15.50 for the coffee batch. If these incentives truly work – which they very well could – it sounds like an easy and cheap way to boost the staff’s morale.
