It has taken the past twenty-five years to accumulate evidence sufficient to \"move\" what was originally a tentative postulation to the status of an indisputable law- a relationship that applies across all people in all situations. This Law of Escalating Marginal Sacrifice (L.E.M.S.) states that when a person exerts more and more effort pursuing a job, task, or goal, the negative outcomes, or costs experienced by the person, as a result of the higher effort exerted, rise at an increasing rate-? the rate of increase accelerating rapidly as one's effort capacity is approached. Such a relationship, between the effort exerted and the perceived costs associated with that effort, has profound implications for managing people in the workforce. Further, this relationship provides a vital framework for integrating the theory of the firm with the theory of individual behavior-a synthesis too long neglected.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51952536813856,"sku":"NEW0761827811","price":80.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-law-of-escalating-marginal-sacrifice-explaining-a-plethora-a-heretofore-unresolved-motivation-phenomena-0761827811","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
