Any business that will survive in this environment will have to deal with issues of fraud, theft, sabotage, greed, unproductive workforce and general structural dysfunction.
It is assumed that every individual as a rational agent, will tend to maximize opportunities as presented even if s/he has to distort a working system. Business owners, therefore have to acknowledge this proclivity.
In order to reduce incentive for fraud, and system manipulation, it is important to design or rework the reward system in a way that stimulates productivity, efficiency, and gratuity. This requires deft and tact and the guiding principle should be to deliver a ‘win-win’ outcome for the organization and the workforce.
Any business that gets its reward system right will minimize the incentive for workers to corrupt, manipulate and distort its systems.
Remember that the best of any process and system is as good as the people that drive it.
