Scenario: Artificial Intelligence Medical $($i$.$e$.,$ AIM$)$ Inc. is a very profitable new company, and although it has only been in business for two years it has already doubled the size of its workforce and quadrupled it profits. The CEO$/$founder stepped aside recently in favor of a new CEO in the wake of employees' frustration and social media messages about the benefits inequity and lack of motivation for teams at the company. The new CEO wants to change the way executive salaries are determined and find ways to motivate the project teams. The project teams typically are assigned to an artificial intelligence product such as a robot to perform routine surgeries or diagnostic software used by different medical units of a hospital for patient diagnosis.

The new CEO tasked your employee team with finding a solution to the inequity in pay at the company and to address the lack of motivation for the $125$ technicians and medical staff that work in project teams of $25$ employees each. Each technician or staff member receives a salary of $$45,000$ per year while the CEO and V$.$P$.$s receive $$500,000$ per year $($the CEO also holds $10\%$ of the company stock$)$ and the managers receive $$65,000$ per year. There is a CEO, $2$ VPs $($Manufacturing and Finance$),$ a Marketing Manager, a Sales$/$Customer Service Manager, and a Technical Support Manager along with the $125$ technology$-$savvy employees who work for the company.
