How do we know what our objectives are?
Importance of consultation and communication
Senior managers dont have all the answers
The debate of different viewpoints provides a
balanced understanding of corporate objectives.
Management will learn about the variables that
are associated with performance improvement
Management will learn about what motivates
employees
People will understand and become committed to
the strategy

Best-fit or best practice?

Strategy
Success
  • Success is not derived from a clever strategy
    determined at the top but by having rewards
    that attract and retain the best human resources
    available
  • It is the people that are the source of
    competitive advantage and the basis of good
    strategies

16
High commitment management and reward
  • Emphasises the need for a moral commitment to
    organisations
  • This is about the perceived mutuality of
    interests between employees and their employers
  • This can be achieved through adopting reward
    practices which foster high trust relationships
    and intrinsic work satisfaction sharing success
    but protecting from failure

17
The New Pay
  • Pay levels driven by market forces rather than
    internal comparison
  • Pay rises driven by performance
  • Reward set in the context of a psychological
    contract characterised by risk sharing between
    employer and employee
  • More pay dependent on performance
  • More emphasis on employability than job
    security

18
What do we mean by Best practice and does it
work?
  • Performance bonuses and share options are
    important (Becker and Huselid 1997)
  • Bundles of high performance work systems
    (gainsharing, competitive pay levels, training,
    team working, and participation) are more
    effective than isolated initiatives (MacDuffie
    1995 Arthur 1994 Ichniowski et al 1998)
