Here's an example of what can happen in the outside world when employees save a company lots of money with good ideas.
THEY are rewarded, not bigger bonuses for the execs only.
From abc news site...
An employee ideas program has paid off in more ways than one, with massive christmas bonuses for 800 North Queensland workers.
At a lavish Christmas party in Townsville last night, 55 luxury cars and 700 Pacific island holidays were handed out to workers at the Yubulu Nickel Refinery.
Mining executive Clive Palmer says the rewards are well deserved as workers helped turn around the refinery, which had faced closure before his company bought the business last year.
Mr Palmer says the plant has gone from strength to strength, and employee efforts have contributed to around $16 million dollars in business savings.

Between you and me , readers I would suggest these folks are feeling decidedly engaged and would bend over backwards for Mr Palmer.He is of course a very wealthy man in a different business but this is a clear indication of how to do it.
