Abstract

The perverse incentive is a wide spread phenomenon reported in various contexts and organizations. Despite this, there are no theoretical approaches from a management perspective. The study aims to make the necessary theoretical conceptual delimitations for clarifying the perverse incentive concept and to describe, for the first time, the main contexts and causes for occurrence of perverse incentive in organisations. This article presents the first general theoretical framework about the determinant mechanisms of perverse incentives in organisations.
