Intelligent Incentives:
The Ultimate Performance Enhancer

A BI WORLDWIDE and IBM event

25th November 2026 | 2.00PM | London, UK

Technology changes what’s possible.
Motivation determines what’s achieved.

As organisations seek new ways to improve sales, service, customer experience and operational performance, two priorities are rising to the top of the agenda: harnessing the potential of AI and inspiring people to perform at their best.

Join BI WORLDWIDE and IBM for an executive-level discussion exploring how leading organisations are unlocking performance through technology, behavioural science and incentives.

You’ll hear first-hand lessons from IBM’s AI journey alongside BI WORLDWIDE’s perspective on the role incentives play in motivating behaviour, sustaining momentum and helping organisations break through performance plateaus.

  • Learn from IBM’s Client Zero journey and how AI is helping unlock new levels of productivity and business impact.
  • Discover how incentives and behavioural science drive discretionary effort, engagement and performance across sales and customer-facing teams.
  • Explore how organisations can combine multiple performance levers to accelerate results and achieve stronger business outcomes.
