Something to Consider
Option 2: Friendly Competition
CAUTIOUSLY RECOMMENDED
No one wants to be outshon by a colleague, and so a little friendly competition can really keep things moving. But you need to gauge for yourself in your own company - is it realistic to hope for a friendly competition? Just as likely, employees will feel like you're setting them up for a round of layoffs. And if you set up a "race to the top" style of competition, people are likely to care more about winning than about the quality of their work.
Consider carefully whether a competition is right for your workplace. If you truly have a tight-knit group of capable employees, especially in a small business, it may be just what you need.
If your employees have trouble getting along, if you do not have good relationships with your employees, or if you have a wide range of employee performance, there is a gentler option.
