Consider your own experience with task teams, both within your company and in other contexts such as industry associations, professional committees, or even non-professionai groups such as volunteer or community organizations. Review what worked and didn t work, what you liked and didn t like, and what you found rewarding or frustrating about each experience. This simple exercise helps identify potential pHMIs as well as successful techniques for managing a task team. 

What Incentives andjor Performance Criteria Apply.

Whether life sciences informatics software ultimately becomes a commodity, with the commercial rewards for software companies being in packaging, integration, support, and deployment (in a similar way to the Linux community), and what impact the open source movement will have.

The association of inputs with housing values (which accrue to the homeowner as well as the neighborhood more generally), suggests some obvious instrumental motivations not only for chemical application but for the positive association between such practices and community values. As most realtors will tell you, lawn upkeep is a relatively inexpensive investment for maintaining property values. In follow-up discussions, some lawn owners explicitly told us that their lawn care inputs were investments in their homes. Indeed, people with higher incomes and expensive homes have much more capital-in the form of an existing manicured lawn-to protect with chemical applications. Despite any expectation of social reward for environmentally protective behavior, homeowners are actually rewarded for environmentally detrimental behavior.
