Linking goals to monetary incentives
文章讨论了设计有效员工激励计划的复杂性，提出四种基于目标的激励方法及其优缺点，帮助管理者构建合理的奖励体系。
The article discusses the complexities of designing an employee incentive plan that works. The author argues that first and foremost, incentive systems must be paired with clear goals. Four methods of goal-based incentive programs are presented, as are their pros and cons. The first method involves assigning stretch goals with bonuses for success. The second method creates several goal levels with corresponding bonuses. Method three creates a linear systems with goals attached to incremental performance goals. The fourth method is a reward system determined by management based on several factors, such as individual performance, company performance, how much of the goal was achieved, etc. Further discussion of how these systems should be constructed is presented.
