The effects of marginality and reward on matrix conflict

Article Abstract:

Marginality and a reward system have several effects on metric conflict during the initial stage of a project. A reward system that places equal weight on group and individual goals reduces conflict more than a reward system that gives more weight in individual goals. Paired decision makers with low marginality also show increased conflict. Finally, teams that place equal weight on group and individual goals perform better than those whose reward system places unequal weight on both goals.
