Course Description:
This seminar explores several aspects of workplace relationships, with particular emphasis on the relationship between the firm and its employees. Among the questions we will explore are: How do compensation and promotion policies affect the firm-employee relationship? How do such policies affect relationships between employees, and how do they affect productivity? What is the difference between a desirable job and an undesirable job? Is it possible or practical for a firm to transform the design of an undesirable job to make it desirable? Can the introduction of financial incentives turn a desirable job into an undesirable one? |
