Abstract

This chapter will detail how ING Barings Bank, a subsidiary of the Dutch banking and insurance group, International Netherlands Group (ING), manages motivation. ING Barings has recognized that performance-based compensation alone is not sufficient to significantly enhance employee performance and increase the length of time an employee stays with a company. For this reason, they have developed an extensive set of motivational tools covering eight areas/subjects. Fundamental to the ING concept is the combination of these different areas/subjects in such a manner as to achieve the best balance between the needs of the employees and the interests of ING Barings.
