Abstract
This guide presents a range of
non-monetary award programs to recognize performance
improvements in government programs, initiatives, and
agencies. Nine award programs are drawn from Canada,
Ireland, Abu Dhabi, the Philippines, the United States and
Jordan. Each of the programs are analyzed along the
following dimensions: objectives, target applicants, award
categories, selection criteria, participation, selection
process, type of reward, year of establishment, and number
of awards given per year. Individual program details along
these dimensions are available. The first section presents
the theoretical background on how non-monetary award
programs function, their expected benefits, and guiding
principles to harness the potential benefits of such a
program. The second section highlights the findings from the
analysis of the nine programs along the key dimensions.
