carrot-waving

Insincere offers of incentives used in place of actual incentives or as virtue signaling. Mentioning funding, promotions or benefits without the authority, intention or ability to deliver.
Management has nothing left to offer us apart from some carrot-waving. Frankly, I’m more worried where that carrot is going to end up.”
