Providing employee incentives can be a double-edged sword. on the one hand,the promise of bounses or gifts can spur workers to higher achievement. on the other hand ,incentives can creat resentment and internal competitiveness that are demaging to morale and to the organization.Even so,I think a carefully designed incentive program can operate to the net benefit of a company.
Incentive programs are counterproductive when the distribution of rewards appears to be personally biased,when the program recognizes just one kind among many important jobs in the organization,or when there are too few rewards available. For example,if a manager regularlyrewards an employee who is perceived to be a favorite,coworkers will be resentful. Or if the company decides to recognize high sales,while ignoring an especially precise cost-assessment from the accounting department,the accountants may feel their work is not valued,Finally,if rewards are too few,some employees will become overly competitive,while others may simply stop trying.
However ,incentive programs can be designed to avoid such pitfalls.First,the company must determine that it can provide sufficient rewards to motivate all employee.Then it must set,and follow,clear and non- arbitrary guidelines for achievement.Finally,management should provide appropriate incentives throughtout the organization,thereby sending message that all work is valued,Admittedly,even a thoughtfully designed incentive program cannot entirely prevent back-stabbing and unfair competitive tactics.But watchful management can quell much of this behavior,and the perpetrators usually show their true colors in time.
In sum, I think that the productivity inspired by thoughtful incentive programs will very likely outweigh any negative consequences.In the final analysis ,then ,I disagree with the speaker's recommendation against their use.作者: oddyuibe 时间: 2003-5-2 00:32
