About

Agent relationships is a fundamental concept within organizational theory, economics, and law that examines the interactions, agreements, and dynamics between a principal who delegates authority and an agent authorized to act on their behalf. This concept investigates the motivations, potential conflicts arising from divergent objectives, and the mechanisms employed to govern these relationships, including contractual arrangements, monitoring, and incentive structures, to ensure the agent acts in the principal's interest.
