Measured data from this experiment verifies the stated hypothesis. Analyzing trial 1 gives valuable insight to the experiment. A 2% disparity between the groups was seen.
Thesis: A conflicting reward system within a Criminal Justice organization makes reaching the goals set forth by the administrators of the organization more difficult to accomplish. If individual achievement is rewarded then the organization as a whole may suffer and not succeed in the goals set before it. If the organization as a whole is rewarded and individuals are not recognized for individual accomplishments the moral of the department may suffer. Criminal Justice administrators must balance goals and personnel behavior with a reward system that helps accomplish the overall goals of the organization yet still recognize the individual employee for his/her accomplishments.
This involves recognising contributions and celebrating wins. Having high expectations for your team shows a leader believes in the abilities of his team, which increases the likelihood of a higher performing group (p. 282). It is imperative at this stage that the group are rewarded in some way for their effort; this could be as simple as a “thank you”, a “half-day off”, a “celebratory coffee & cake”. When leaders commend individuals for achieving the values or goals of the organisation, they give them courage, inspiring them to experience their own ability to deliver-even when the pressure is on. When we recognize women and men for their contributions we expand their awareness of their value to the organization and to their co-workers, imparting a sense of connectedness that, being social animals, all humans seek. While we may all be connected, leaders make sure that we're in touch (Kouzes & Posner, 2003).

Payment of commission for sales production is one of the methods used today.
Focusing on what other people have to offer is one thing, but being able to actually encourage that and reward that is another. I should, as a leader, want to show support for my followers in any way possible, whether it is verbally or physically. If someone does a spectacular job on a project or meets a deadline, I could reward that behavior in some way. It could be an uplifting comment or even a free lunch. Whatever it is, it will more than likely be empowering to that person and make them want to keep doing stellar work. I could empower people by communicating more frequently and with better quality. Also, empowerment could come in handy when a not so great job is being done. If someone is slacking on the job, as a leader I could offer help and advice on how to improve and prevent the issue from arising in the
