A multinational corporation is designing a new employee bonus program. Two options are proposed:
- Program A: Bonuses are awarded to the top 5% of individual performers based on their personal sales figures and achievements. This system is designed to foster competition and reward individual excellence.
- Program B: Bonuses are distributed equally among all members of a team if the team collectively meets or exceeds its goals. This system is designed to encourage collaboration and group success.
