Performance Management
Scripture says that the laborer is worthy of his wages (Lk 10:7; 1 Tim 5:18). Jesus makes it clear that those who work hard should be compensated fairly, regardless of when they began working. In today's world, there are still many people who are not paid a fair wage for their work. But the principle remains the same: those who work hard deserve to be compensated fairly.

In order for a pay-for-performance program to be effective, it must possess certain key characteristics. First and foremost, the program must be based on a clear and concise set of objectives. Without a defined goal, it will be difficult to measure the program's success. Secondly, the program must have buy-in from all levels of the organization, from management down to front-line employees. Without this buy-in, there is a risk that the program will not be given the attention and resources it needs to succeed. Finally, the program must be designed with a thorough understanding of human behavior. Incentives must be carefully crafted to encourage desired behavior while avoiding any undesired or unintended consequences. When these characteristics are present,…
