组织承诺与最优激励Organizational Commitment and Optimal Incentives
周碧华,刘涛雄
摘要(Abstract):
具有组织承诺偏好的代理人不仅关心自身收入而且也关心组织利益,本文考虑组织承诺对参与人效用函数的影响,在此基础上拓展基本的委托—代理模型并归纳最优契约特征。研究表明,组织承诺本身是一个有效的激励因素,具有承诺偏好的员工比其他员工需要更少的薪酬激励,更小的工资差异可以激励高努力水平。在最优激励契约设计中承诺偏好与工资差异具有可替代性。当代理人承诺的增加完全依赖于委托人支持时,承诺并不有利于组织效率的提高。模型结论能更好地解释管理实践,尤其是非营利组织的管理实践,有助于管理者在受工资差异限制情况下进行激励机制设计,防止激励扭曲或过度激励引起的效率损失。

- [20]承诺有多种形式,本文主要探讨的是组织承诺。因为组织承诺是多种形式的承诺中研究最早也是研究最深入的一个。同时,包括组织承诺在内的各种不同形式的承诺虽然指向对象不同,但概念核心是一致的,都表明个体对承诺对象的认同、接受和依附。因此本文以下谈到的承诺,没加以说明的都是指组织承诺。尽管如此,对于其他形式的承诺,本文的基本思想及框架稍加修改亦可适用。
- [21]组织能够雇佣具有组织承诺偏好的员工或培养员工的组织承诺是组织效率的核心体现。与Besley、Ghatak和Prendergast的研究结果一致,当组织雇佣的员工会共同承担组织目标时,组织的生产效率大大增强。

- [27]有两个社会心理学的基本理论可以解释组织承诺与组织支持之间的关系,一个是社会交换理论;另一个是角色认同理论。前者阐述了社会关系中的交易质量是基于个体自利行为,个体既关心自已的回报,也关心影响自身收益的他人回报,这意味着稳定的员工与组织关系是彼此都关心对方收益;后者认为个体处于特定角色中,必须依赖于与对应角色的互惠和交换,对应角色间绩效和期望联系在一起。员工和组织也是相对的角色,彼此或多或少关注对方的收益。
- [28]在委托人的效用函数中,关于对代理人支持程度这一项中没有出现βp_iπ,是因为考虑“支持”应该来自于委托人对代理人成本收益的关心,而代理人效用函数中βp_iπ这项本身来自于委托人所代表组织的收益,但委托人对组织收益的关心已由其效用函数中的p_i(π-w_1)+(1-p_i)-(-w_2)这一项代表,如再放入βp_iπ既重复,理论上也说不通。
