I am looking for WHY should we reward people who work on a 2-3 years
technology project?  So far, this is what I came up with but I am not
satisfied that I have all the right criteria:
"The business person involved must have achieved all three of the
overarching criteria of Going above and beyond, Displaying
Leadership/Flexibility and Producing Expected Results. If they have
met those overall, then you can apply a weight factor 1-5 (5 being the
highest) score to each individual category and subsections under #1.
		1. Go above and beyond
- Exceed expectations of KRA?s
		- Timely deliverables
		- Solution oriented
		- Collaboration/communication
		- Business focus vs. stovepipe
		- Worked beyond normal business hours
		- Multiple roles for the business and project
	2. Leadership/flexibility
	3. Produced expect results

I never reward people for working beyond normal business hours. Either
they are not doing their job in the time allotted to it because they
are lazy or I have failed to allocate sufficient manpower to the job.
Whatever the reason, there is no cause for reward.

Second, "timely deliverables" are to be expected. Any idiot can
produce at the deadline, but is the item correct? To specification?
Does it need to be reworked? No? Good. You met a deadline. Whoopee.

Now if the product is delivered ahead of time fully completed, the
reward should pretty much compensate for the amount of pay the
person/team would have gotten if they went the full schedule and then
some. In other words, offer an incentive to exceed expectations, not
just meet them.

Being paid to meet expectations is called a salary.
