...psyche! The weeks leading up to the Rally one has to say, is often slightly stressful for us. There are logistical nightmares of getting people, food and music to the sleepy railway town of Waterval Boven on the edge of the Mpumalanga escarpment. Without going into the boring details of the comedies of errors that struck on the last hour, you know things are not going to plan when the tick list starts growing onto the next page instead of slowly diminishing as the master plan is supposed to unfold. Why on earth did I ever utter the thought: “Hey, let's pull a generator across the top of Baboon Buttress, light up the crags below and have some night climbing on the Friday!”? By mid Friday afternoon nothing more could go wrong. Some friends and volunteers were still out at the crags putting up the last fixed top anchors on routes for us.

The camp site had steadily filled up from early in the week but during the day most climbers bailed from work and were now milling about, pitching...

MAKE CUSTOMERS A BIRTHDAY CARD Guerrilla Ray Fisher of Keylock Mini Storage in Pinellas Park, Florida celebrates his tenantsʼ birthdays with a card he creates himself. He prints a poem on the card and gets four cards out of each piece of 8-1/2 x 11 card stock. He goes to Kinkos to have the cards printed and cut. Since sending the cards, Fisher has received a very positive response. One tenant even dropped by office just to say he really appreciated the card. Fisher started a file organized by month to pre-address the cards to make it easy to mail within a week of upcoming birthdays. Any service business can profit from this personal touch. 2. A STICKY SUCCESS STORY Guerrilla Mike Cohen informs us that no one ignores coupons from Captain Tonyʼs Pizza in Cleveland, Ohio. Thatʼs because they are printed on Post-It™ notes and placed each month on every door in their delivery area.The typical response rate is 30%.

...performance in a given situation, or delivering a special project. Typical rewards are money in a form of a bonus, trips paid for by the company, gifts from a rewards catalog, or services such as cell phone or paid cable. TYPES OF REWARDS Selecting the appropriate rewards is vital to any programs success. The goal in choosing rewards is to select items that will spark the participant’s interest or feelings, and support the program’s objectives. Effective rewards will both motivate short-term behavior and provide motivation over time. VARIABLE PAY Variable pay or pay-for-performance is a compensation program in which a portion of a person's pay is considered "at risk." Variable pay can be tied to the performance of the company, the results of a business unit, an individual's accomplishments, or any combination of these. It can take many forms, including bonus programs, stock options, and one-time awards for significant accomplishments. Some companies choose to pay their employees less than competitors but attempt to motivate and reward employees using a variable pay program instead. According to Shawn Tully in Fortune , "The test of a good pay-for-performance plan is simple: It must motivate managers to produce earnings growth that far exceeds the extra cost of [the program]. Though employees should be made to stretch, the goals must be within reach." BONUSES Bonus programs have been used in American business for some time. They usually reward individual accomplishment...

(Larry, 22, a U Michigan grad, is considering the school; Sergey, 21, is assigned to show him around.) According to some accounts, they disagree about almost everything during this first meeting. 1996 * Larry and Sergey, now Stanford computer science grad students, begin collaborating on a search engine called BackRub. * BackRub operates on Stanford servers for more than a year—eventually taking up too much bandwidth to suit the university. 1997 * Larry and Sergey decide that the BackRub search engine needs a new name. After some brainstorming, they go with Google—a play on the word “googol,” a mathematical term for the number represented by the numeral 1 followed by 100 zeros. The use of the term reflects their mission to organize a seemingly infinite amount of information on the web.
