ABSTRACT:
The motivation of a participant in an incentive program is enhanced by enabling the participant to set goals, report performance related to the goals, and receive feedback on the achievement of the goals. The feedback includes report(s) and/or reward(s). Motivation is further enhanced by heuristically and dynamically adapting the goals according to performance.
