Concept and Brief Description

The elements are organizational structure, task design, people, reward systems, and information systems.

Technology can improve the efficiency of the human resource management functions and support knowledge sharing. e-HRM can let the companies employees help themselves to the HR info they need.
Emotional Hook
High-Performance teams should be compensated the best, if they produce results, and the right kinds of results. It’s very important to align their compensation to what is good for the company in the long run. It seems that when employees are faced with a short term gain by doing something “unethical” you have more cases of employees being unethical. Given the right motivation, compensation will empower the high-performance team to do what is best for everyone involved.
