OxTalks is Changing
Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
How do recognition and performance feedback influence employee productivity?
The field experiment is designed to explore the roles recognition and performance feedback play in shaping employee productivity of a large e-commerce firm. Given that the outcome variable of interest can be quantitatively measured by the firm’s key performance indicators, we randomly assign workers into one control and several treatment groups using their unique employee IDs. We vary how the feedback is given, its format and framing. The experiment attempts to answer such questions as would a negatively framed feedback damage the receiver’s self-image and reduce post-feedback productivity? Or would it motivate the worker to put in extra effort? Conditioning on the content of the feedback itself, would the seniority of the feedback sender play a large role? Do effects fade after repeated interactions?
