Gene:
You made some very good points with which I agree. We are social animals
whether we like it or admit it and continually reinforce desired
performance by rewards and recognition. Determining up front what will be
rewarded, measuring it, and communicating the process to all involved
makes achieving desired performance much liklier, less frustrating, and a
more predictable experience.
