I think managers should also look at the behavior being rewarded to decide if recognition should be in the form of cash or noncash.

I'd go with A and B. Financial need AND the behavior - it's a balancing act to get the right motivating factor.

C is a good point too. Taxes can really cut into the impact of cash recognition. Gotta consider that.

Definitely B - the behavior being rewarded is key. Can't just throw cash at people, gotta align it with the right actions!
