Author Abstract We experimentally study ways in which the social preferences of individuals and groups affect performance when faced with relative incentives. We also identify the mediating role that communication and leadership play in generating these effects. We find other regarding workers tend to depress efforts by on average.
However selfish workers are nearly three times more likely to lead workers to coordinate on minimal efforts when communication is possible. Hence the other regarding composition of a team of workers has complex consequences for organizational performance.

Huckman and Jason R. Barro Hummy Song Robert S. the impacts of the annual July turnover of doctors in teaching hospitals on qualty of care. Author Abstract We consider the impact of cohort turnover—the planned simultaneous exit of a large number of experienced employees and a similarly sized entry of new workers—on operational performance in the context of teaching hospitals.
Specifically we examine the impact of the annual July turnover of residents in U.S. teaching hospitals on the average length of hospital stay and mortality rate in teaching hospitals relative to a control group of non teaching hospitals. Despite the anticipated nature of the cohort turnover and the supervisory structures that exist in teaching hospitals the annual July turnover of residents results in a longer average length of stay i.e. increased resource utilization for both minor and major teaching hospitals and higher mortality rates i.e. decreased quality for major teaching hospitals relative to a control group of non teaching hospitals.
