March Madness Problems

The article I choose neither supports nor refutes this article about March Madness but it does given an interesting answer to the costly problem March Madness has influenced. Due to the article titled Make March Madness Work for You: How Some Companies Turn a Distraction Into a Production Incentive written by Dennis Nishi, the founder of NetTel had created a system that awarded worker with points for every sale they made during March Madness. Total scores determined the order in which salespeople got to pick the best-ranked teams to seed their brackets (betting-pool diagrams that chart and predict who will win a tournament). This was an interesting way I found business owners were able to keep their employees motivated to go to work as well as interested in making sales. It was a win win situation for all.
