> Finally, we (or basically I) have not done a good enough job of high rewards for high performance.15 years later, this is still a widespread problem everywhere. People don't capture the full value of their labor (which makes a sort of sense, given imperfect information and how risk is allocated), which leads to people not being incentivized to increase the value of their labor.We've all heard stories about people being extra efficient and getting rewarded with raised expectations and maybe a paltry raise. If people were really incentivized to do their best work, I imagine we'd get a better world.
