The Limits of Organizational Theory and Incentives (Or, Why Corporate Success Is Not Just About Money)
Most economists begin their study of organizational behavior by taking for granted that incentive compensation influences behavior. Managers and employees are assumed to have "utility functions" that reflect a very basic set of "preferences"-preferences for things like money and leisure and job security. And, as clearly simplistic as it is, this "model" of human behavior has been shown to have considerable predictive power. 2005 Morgan Stanley.
