Is it not feasible to use the concept of gain sharing or profit sharing through out the organisation!
Engagement has no generalized priciples either! Compensation objectives of the organization must match with those of the individual.
Organizations like Axis Bank that tried to generalize ESOPs across organization have burnt their fingers.
Couldn't agree with you any less.
However the Cognizant story is interesting from two perspectives:
a) Talent engagement.
b) Performance-based talent engagement.
