    The exercise begins with two examples, (0) and (00) .
    Team-Based Pay
    0 Team-based pay schemes that have been catching the eye of modern employers.
    00 Supporters say that they encourage group endeavour and improve 41 organizational performance. But salespeople, typically the most self-motivated
    42 of workers, they have traditionally been rewarded according to individual
    43 performance. So are team-based schemes suitable ? The key issue is
    44 whether team-based pay is more being in line with the organization’s objectives
    45 than pay which based on individual achievement. Introducing a team pay
    46 scheme can be complex. The biggest problem is for defining the team in the first
    47 place. Another is that team pay schemes won’t work if the actions
    Of one
    48 individual make no impact on those of another. You should need a true team.
    49 like a football team. Where all the members are interdependent. When sales staff
    50 can be less receptive to team pay schemes because personal motivation can
    51 be an important boost to performance What they need is their encouragement
    52 to perceive that the wider term of the company overall : production, administration and dispatch all affect each other.
