Description

This book explains how firms can improve the performance of the people on whom they depend -- workers, customers, suppliers, stockholders, etc. --- by managing the incentives system better. Incentives are not just a matter of money, but a whole range of factors that provide a set of rewards that encourage people to work toward a common goal of organizational success.
