Perverse incentives are unintended consequences that arise when a well-intentioned incentive system produces undesirable outcomes contrary to the original objectives. These incentives often encourage behaviors that undermine the overall goals or values of an organization or society.
Be careful what you reward! Perverse Incentives can lead to unintended and undesirable outcomes if you're not mindful of the signals you're sending. ⚠️💡 #PerverseIncentives #UnintendedConsequences
