Financial incentives, believes Laurie Dealer, can have a positive affect on the workforce.
Take Iveco dealer Sherwood Truck & Van for example, it has just announced the results of its 'Employee of the Quarter' rewarding each with £100.
Here are the four winners:
Dawn Bradshaw, dealership administrator at Sheffield
Jez Moxon, workshop controller in Nottingham,
Kevin Merry, parts salesman in Stoke
Vicki Bird, finance administrator, marketing executive and PA to MD, Blackwell
Helen Waterfall, MD, says: "It's always a real pleasure to reward staff for their hard work and commitment. Their efforts will ensure we maintain our competitive edge and continue to offer the best possible service for customers across all our sites."
