Abstract:
ABSTRACT: We study factors that promote knowledge sharing in a professional service firm. We performed two laboratory experiments with MBA students acting as participants. Our results indicate that an incentive must be considered sufficient to promote full knowledge sharing regardless of the incentive's type (monetary or nonmonetary). However, we find that the nonmonetary incentives used in our experiment were not deemed sufficient when participants self-determined incentive sufficiency. Additionally, when the peer environment promoted knowledge hoarding, knowledge sharing dropped the most whe

Abstract:
Athletics-related professional associations are nonprofit and formed voluntarily by athletic administrators or coaches. Because membership enrollment and retention are critical to organizational survival, factors affecting members’ participation should be studied to aid managerial decisions. This study was designed to test a conceptual model and develop a valid Membership Incentive Scale (MIS) to identify important membership incentives. The MIS is based on an underlying theoretical framework and empirical support. Participants (N = 415) from 15 professional associations completed a national s

Abstract:
Department of Defense (DoD) incentive contracts usually contain a predetermined formula for profit or fee adjustment based upon the actual cost outcome. Additional incentives can also be included, provided that a cost incentive (or constraint) also exists. Historically, DoD incentive contracts containing multiple incentives exceeded their cost targets 20% more frequently than those containing only a cost incentive. The author conducted a factor analysis to compare incentive contract outcomes between the DoD and other government agencies to determine if any underlying factors exist. One factor

Abstract:
This paper analyzes the effects of stock option incentives on inefficient investment. Specifically, based on the motive of design, we divide stock option incentives into incentive-driven and welfare-driven incentives. Our research is based on the panel data of 511 Chinese listed companies that declared stock option incentives from 2010 to 2014, including both incentive-driven and welfare-driven incentives. Our research shows that different types of stock option incentives have different effects on inefficient investment. Generally, incentive-driven stock option incentives reduce inefficient in

Teachers are at the heart of the education process; in attempts to improve teacher quality there has been a trend in the US and elsewhere to incentivize teachers to put in more effort.

It focuses on the question of how policy makers and education leaders can improve teacher effort towards the outcome of interest, specifically improving student achievement.

Abstract:
This study analyzes difficulties posed by dealers operating in e-commerce who intervene in reviews and undermine credibility by offering money to purchasers who post highly positive reviews of their products: the incentivized fake review problem. Moreover, we study its effects on e-commerce markets. Offering biased incentives to receive more favorable reviews undermines the review mechanism validity. In e-commerce market transactions, reviews by buyers more strongly affect sales of products than in other markets. Because a loss of trust in reviews reduces the transaction volume, this incentivi

Abstract:
This paper discusses the topic of deforestation in Latin America and the Caribbean and the use of incentives as support for private forestry investments. The paper develops the idea of using targeted and cost-effective incentives that must take into account cultural and social factors. In addition, cost recovery mechanisms for incentive schemes should ideally be indirect, based on taxes and fees.

Saxby, Peter. Non-financial incentives and their application to enhance motivation and productivity in mining industry employees. Edited by Ernesto Bonafé. University of Dundee, 2024. http://dx.doi.org/10.20933/100001307.

Full text
Abstract:
The mining industry is experiencing challenges in attracting and retaining sufficient skilled employees to meet strategic aims and production objectives, despite offering relatively high financial incentives. Human resources management theory indicates that many factors contribute to employee motivation and job satisfaction, and that these in turn influence performance and employee turnover. Although financial rewards are recognised as major motivating factors in mining employee job satisfaction, non-financial motivators are also desired. This paper examines the use of non-financial incentives

Full text
Abstract:
The gap in productivity among countries is a fundamental factor contributing to income disparities across countries. Firm-embedded productivity, encompassing knowledge, expertise, patents, brands, and business models, contributes to approximately one-third of the variation in output per worker across countries. Country-specific factors, such as institutions and natural resources, account for the remaining variation. Policies that enhance firm- embedded productivity, such as tax incentives for R&amp;D and research grants, can help reduce global income inequality.

Abstract:
Micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) find it challenging to undertake innovation activities given their limited resources and capabilities. Studies on innovation in MSMEs have identified internal and external factors that affect innovation capabilities and activities, one of which is government support. Incentives such as tax deductions/credits, grants, subsidies and other similar instruments have been used by governments to promote innovation especially in MSMEs. Using the 2015 Survey of Innovation Activities of Establishments, this paper presents a profiling of innovation activities

Abstract:
Demand-driven technical and vocational education and training (TVET) has been associated with positive economic outcomes for the trainees and the participating firms and enterprises. Despite these potential positive implications, numerous studies consistently show the limited involvement of the private sector in training provision and curriculum development in the Philippines. Thus, this study examines the enterprise-based training (EBT) modality in the country by identifying the barriers to entry of industries in co-developing and offering upskilling programs and by evaluating existing incent

Abstract:
In 2008, the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) introduced the Development Effectiveness Framework (DEF) to enhance the effectiveness of its products. This evaluation assesses the degree to which the DEF is achieving its objectives and identifies factors influencing its performance. Using mixed methods, including surveys, machine learning models, and causal inference models, the evaluation found that while the DEF established a structured system to measure project results, outcomes have fallen short of targets due to various factors.

Abstract:
Over the last decade, every Paraguayan administration has faced greater political challenges and financial pressures than its predecessor. The result has been a chronic fiscal deficit since 1995. This study disentangles the budget-making process in Paraguay by studying the key players influencing the budget cycle (preparation, approval, execution, and control), their powers, and their incentives. The document discusses how the incentives for cooperation affect the conditions for the sustainability of public expenditures, the efficient allocation of resources, and the representative quality of

Abstract:
This rapid evidence review explores how climate change can create incentives for participating in illicit drug production by disrupting agricultural and natural-resource-based livelihoods and exacerbating social, economic, and political stresses and conflict. However, it is difficult to identify a precise causal relationship between the impacts of climate change and illicit drug production, and the effects of climate change appear to be limited compared with other driving forces. In Afghanistan, climate change is expected to contribute to rising temperatures, worsening water stress, and increa

Abstract:
The article aims at assessing the current state of Saudi-Iranian relations and the reconciliation process taking place between the two Middle Eastern countries since 2021 by overviewing the main factors both on the domestic and international levels which can serve as either incentives for cooperation or obstacles. In the domestic realm, economic considerations are the primary drivers for both governments to get closer to each other. Regionally, the Yemeni conflict, Lebanese domestic politics, as well as the Iranian nuclear question are the most important issues affecting the process. In themse
