Abstract
Organizations face a daunting challenge as they grow. Multiple studies and theories have been developed defining the challenge of large firms including loss of control, loss of task visibility, increasing agency and monitoring costs and misalignment of incentives between the owners and managers of large firms. Examining the theories of Propensity to Withhold Effort, Organizational Commitment Behavior and Employee Engagement this paper seeks to explore the factors that inhibit employees to give the rational level of effort versus the environments where employees to go beyond expectations.
