Reward Mechanisms and Total Quality Management

Consider that there can be a significant influence of reward systems on the employee involvement in Total Quality Management, both positive and negative...

Besides these tangible, financial rewards, you should also offer soft rewards, such as when you publicise successes with the people behind it. Both of these reward types will help to maintain the necessary change impetus.
