Answer:

Rewards for inefficiency

Explanation:

Rewards for inefficiency refers to simply rewarding an employee or group of employees for not doing their work properly. In this case, the team that was working on project XK11 is inefficient and they are simply lazy or bad at what they do, and instead of taking actions to correct this bad behavior, management rewards them by giving them more time = less work.

The problem with this scenario, is that the team that is currently working on project YK12 will eventually realize that they are being punished for being efficient and working properly. They will soon start being inefficient and lazy as the other team in order to be rewarded.
