    "title": "Thinking Locally or Globally? – Trying to Overcome the Tragedy\nof Personnel Evaluation with Stories or Selective Information Presentation",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "Social dilemmas conceptually suggest distinguishing direct\nindividual and group-level effects (also involving indirect\neffects on others). Furthermore, the success of organizations\nappears to rely on identifying not only individual excellence\nbut positive impact on others as well. In ‘Two-Level\nPersonnel Evaluation Tasks’ (T-PETs) participants as human\nresource managers evaluate employees when individual and\ngroup contributions are dissociated. Von Sydow, Braus, &\nHahn (2018) have suggested a potential ‘Tragedy of\nPersonnel Evaluation’: A group-serving employee with the\nsmallest individual contribution but by far the greatest po-\nsitive effect on the group’s overall earnings was often rated\nthe most negatively. Here we investigate, in two experiments\nwith conflicting information, whether emphasizing the group\ncan avert the ‘tragic’ outcome. Our results suggest that the\ntragedy is not as complete as suggested, and that contextual\ninformation can mitigate the tragedy. Nonetheless, the results\nalso corroborate the stability of underestimating the impact of\nteam players.",
