Course Description

Discover the critical elements of designing and implementing an incentive program that is simple, fair, and motivates your employees to greater productivity.

Although incentive plans are fraught with danger, well-executed plans carry a high ROI, including increased productivity and performance. Done poorly, incentive plans can backfire, leading to employee dissatisfaction and dissention. Through ICMI’s Designing a Call Center Incentive Program that Drives Results course, you’ll learn the best way to evaluate and design a program that really gets performance and productivity results.

Starting with a blueprint for employee peak performance, you’ll discover how incentives work as part of an overall performance strategy. To guarantee the success of your incentive program, it is essential that it supports your business strategy. You’ll learn how to forge a link between your desired business outcomes and the contributions of your employees.

Having determined whether (or not!) an incentive program is right for your organization, you’ll use a proven 10-step incentive design implementation process to create the right program for your needs, both on the service side and on the sales side. You’ll learn what works and what doesn’t, how to determine who should get incentives, and how to implement and effectively communicate the program to your employees.
