"Companies are using incentives to help grow business, improve employee engagement, recruit new employees and enhance the relationship between employees and employer. Plus, they are fun, and the winning travelers get to network and understand each other on a personal level—something that can help get things done when they are back in the office. That sense of loyalty was shown to extend even to those who don’t win the trip. The possibility of a reward is motivating."
