Abstract:

This white paper:

* Questions the passionate adherence to line-of-sight principles in reward program design among many firms today, and explores some of the consequences
* Proposes a more thoughtful examination of the role of line of sight in the context of organizational performance
* Suggests questions employers can ask themselves to build more pragmatic line-of-sight principles into incentive design

Although a departure from pure line-of-sight principles, a more thoughtful approach to line of sight encourages the individual to consider his/her influence not only on the immediate task, but also on the organization's sustainable performance.
