这项研究的重点是在威廉E。西蒙工商管理研究生院在20世纪90年代初,将努力从学术研究转向课堂教学。我们发现,在激励措施发生变化后,教学评级几乎立即大幅跃升。长期学习和营业额的影响。证据还表明,研究产出下降。这个案例说明了在多任务环境中,即使存在明显的人力资本限制,组织激励也能改变工作方向。
This study focuses on changes in incentives at the William E. Simon Graduate School of Business Administration in the early 1990s to redirect effort from academic research to classroom teaching. We find a substantial and almost immediate jump in teaching ratings following the changes in incentives. Longer-run learning and turnover effects are present. Evidence also suggests that research output fell. This case illustrates the power of organizational incentives to redirect effort in a multitask environment, even in the presence of apparent human–capital constraints.
