| Lernziele | This course considers the interplay between remuneration policy and employee motivation. Students should learn - under which conditions incentive pay can be used effectively to motivate employees and when the use of incentive pay is problematic, - which alternative wage policies and non-monetary incentives can be considered for motivating employees when the use of pay for performance poses problems, - that the functioning of policies to motivate employees depends to a large extent on the behavioral assumptions about the individuals involved. |
