Study Question 1: How do individual needs influence motivation? • Motivation and individual needs • Motivation—the forces within the individual that account for the level, direction, and persistence of effort expended at work. • Needs • Unfulfilled physiological and psychological desires of an individual. • Explain workplace behavior and attitudes. • Create tensions that influence attitudes and behavior. • Good managers and leaders facilitate employee need satisfaction. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 2: What are the different types of individual needs? • Hierarchy of needs theory • Developed by Abraham Maslow. • Lower-order and higher-order needs affect workplace behavior and attitudes. • Lower-order needs: • Physiological, safety, and social needs. • Desires for physical and social well being. • Higher-order needs: • Esteem and self-actualization needs. • Desire for psychological growth and development. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 2: What are the different types of individual needs? • Hierarchy of needs theory • Deficit principle • A satisfied need is not a motivator of behavior. • Progression principle • A need at one level does not become activated until the next lower-level need is satisfied. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Figure 14.1Opportunities for satisfaction in Maslow’s hierarchy of human needs. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 1: How do individual needs influence motivation? • Acquired needs theory • Developed by David McClelland. • People acquire needs through their life experiences. • Needs that are acquired: • Need for Achievement(nAch) • Need for Power(nPower) • Need for Affiliation(nAff) Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 1: How do individual needs influence motivation? • Acquired needs theory • Need for Achievement(nAch) • Desire to do something better or more efficiently, to solve problems, or to master complex tasks. • People high in (nAch) prefer work that: • Involves individual responsibility for results. • Involves achievable but challenging goals. • Provides feedback on performance. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 1: How do individual needs influence motivation? • Acquired needs theory • Need for Power (nPower) • Desire to control other persons, to influence their behavior, or to be responsible for other people. • Personal power versus social power. • People high in (nPower) prefer work that: • Involves control over other persons. • Has an impact on people and events. • Brings public recognition and attention. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 1: How do individual needs influence motivation? • Acquired needs theory • Need for Affiliation (nAff) • Desire to establish and maintain friendly and warm relations with other persons. • People high in (nAff) prefer work that: • Involves interpersonal relationships. • Provides for companionship • Brings social approval. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 2: What are the process theories of motivation? • Process theories of motivation … • How people make choices to work hard or not. • Choices are based on: • Individual preferences. • Available rewards. • Possible work outcomes. • Types of process theories: • Equity theory. • Expectancy theory. • Goal-setting theory. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 2: What are the process theories of motivation? • Equity theory • Developed by J. Stacy Adams. • When people believe that they have been treated unfairly in comparison to others, they try to eliminate the discomfort and restore a perceived sense of equity to the situation. • Perceived inequity. • Perceived equity. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 2: What are the process theories of motivation? • Equity theory • People respond to perceived negative inequity by changing … • Work inputs. • Rewards received. • Comparison points. • Situation. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 2: What are the process theories of motivation? • Managerial implications of equity theory— • Underpaid people experience anger. • Overpaid people experience guilt. • Perceptions of rewards determine motivational outcomes. • Negative consequences of equity comparisons should be minimized, if not eliminated. • Do not underestimate the impact of pay as a source of equity controversies in the workplace. • Gender equity. • Comparable worth. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 2: What are the process theories of motivation? • Expectancy theory • Developed by Victor Vroom. • Key expectancy theory variables: • Expectancy — belief that working hard will result in desired level of performance. • Instrumentality — belief that successful performance will be followed by rewards. • Valence —value a person assigns to rewards and other work related outcomes. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Figure 14.4Elements in the expectancy theory of motivation. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 2: What are the process theories of motivation? • Managerial implications of expectancy theory— • To maximize expectancy, managers should: • Select workers with ability. • Train workers to use ability. • Support work efforts. • Clarify performance goals. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 2: What are the process theories of motivation? • Managerial implications of expectancy theory— • To maximize instrumentality, managers should: • Clarify psychological contracts. • Communicate performance-outcome possibilities. • Identify rewards that are contingent on performance. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 2: What are the process theories of motivation? • Managerial implications of expectancy theory— • To maximize valence in a positive direction, managers should: • Identify individual needs. • Adjust rewards to match individual needs. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 2: What are the process theories of motivation? • Key issues and principles in the goal-setting process: • Set specific goals. • Set challenging goals. • Build goal acceptance and commitment. • Clarify goal priorities. • Provide feedback on goal accomplishment. • Reward goal accomplishment. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 2: What are the process theories of motivation? • Goal-setting theory • Developed by Edwin Locke. • Properly set and well-managed task goals can be highly motivating. • Motivational effects of task goals: • Provide direction to people in their work. • Clarify performance expectations. • Establish a frame of reference for feedback. • Provide a foundation for behavioral self-management. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 2: What are the process theories of motivation? • Goal-setting theory • Participation in goal setting • unlocks the motivational potential of goal setting. • management by objectives (MBO) promotes participation. • when participation is not possible, workers will respond positively if supervisory trust and support exist. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 3: What role does reinforcement play in motivation? • Fundamentals of reinforcement theory … • Reinforcement theory focuses on the impact of external environmental consequences on behavior. • Law of effect — impact of type of consequence on future behavior. • Operant conditioning: • Developed by B.F. Skinner. • Applies law of effect to control behavior by manipulating its consequences. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 3: What role does reinforcement play in motivation? • Operant conditioning strategies: • Positive reinforcement • Increases the frequency of a behavior through the contingent presentation of a pleasant consequence. • Negative reinforcement • Increases the frequency of a behavior through the contingent removal of an unpleasant consequence. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 3: What role does reinforcement play in motivation? • Operant conditioning strategies: • Punishment • Decreases the frequency of a behavior through the contingent presentation of an unpleasant consequence. • Extinction • Decreases the frequency of a behavior through the contingent removal of an pleasant consequence. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 3: What role does reinforcement play in motivation? • Successful implementation of positive reinforcement is based on • Law of contingent reinforcement— • Reward delivered only if desired behavior is exhibited. • Law of immediate reinforcement— • More immediate the delivery of a reward, the more reinforcement value it has. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 3: What role does reinforcement play in motivation? • Guidelines for using positive reinforcement: • Clearly identify desired work behaviors. • Maintain a diverse inventory of rewards. • Inform everyone about what must be done to get rewards. • Recognize individual differences when allocating rewards. • Follow the laws of immediate and contingent reinforcement. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 3: What role does reinforcement play in motivation? • Guidelines for using punishment: • Tell the person what is being done wrong. • Tell the person what is being done right. • Match the punishment to the behavior. • Administer punishment in private. • Follow laws of immediate and contingent reinforcement. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 3: What role does reinforcement play in motivation? • Schedules of reinforcement: • Continuous reinforcement administers a reward each time a desired behavior occurs. • Intermittent reinforcement rewards behavior only periodically. • Acquisition of behavior is quicker with continuous reinforcement. • Behavior acquired under an intermittent schedule is more permanent. • Shaping is the creation of a new behavior by positive reinforcement of successive approximations to it. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 4: What are the alternative approaches to job design? • Job. • A collection of tasks performed in support of organizational objectives. • Job design. • The process of creating or defining jobs by assigning specific work tasks to individuals and groups. • Jobs should be designed so that both performance and satisfaction result. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 4: What are the alternative approaches to job design? • Job simplification. • Standardizing work procedures and employing people in well-defined and highly specialized tasks. • Simplified jobs are narrow in job scope and low in job depth. • Automation. • Total mechanization of a job. • Most extreme form of job simplification. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Potential advantages of job simplification: Easier and quicker training of workers. Workers are less difficult to supervise. Workers are easier to replace. Development of expertise in doing repetitive tasks. Potential disadvantages of job simplification: Productivity suffers. Cost increases due to absenteeism/ turnover of unhappy workers. Poor performance may result from worker boredom/ alienation. Study Question 4: What are the alternative approaches to job design? Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 4: What are the alternative approaches to job design? • Job rotation and job enlargement: • Expands job scope. • Job rotation. • Increases task variety by periodically shifting workers among jobs involving different task assignments. • Job enlargement. • Increases task variety by combining two or more tasks previously assigned to separate workers. • Horizontal loading. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 4: What are the alternative approaches to job design? • Job enrichment. • Building more opportunities for satisfaction into a job by expanding its content. • Expands both job scope and job depth. • Frequently accomplished through vertical loading. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 4: What are the alternative approaches to job design? • Critical psychological states: • Experienced meaningfulness of work. • Experienced responsibilities for work outcomes. • Knowledge of actual results of work activities. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 4: What are the alternative approaches to job design? • Core job characteristics: • Skill variety. • Task identity. • Task significance. • Autonomy. • Feedback. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 4: What are the alternative approaches to job design? • Improving core job characteristics: • Form natural units of work. • Combine tasks. • Establish client relationships. • Open feedback channels. • Practice vertical loading. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 4: What are the alternative approaches to job design? • Checklist for enriching jobs: • Remove controls that limit people’s discretion in their work. • Grant people authority to make decisions about their work. • Make people understand their accountability for results. • Allow people to do “whole” tasks or complete units of work. • Make performance feedback available. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 4: What are the alternative approaches to job design? • Compressed workweek. • Any work schedule that allows a full-time job to be completed in less than the standard 5 days of 8-hour shifts. • Benefits — more leisure time, lower commuting costs, lower absenteeism, and potentially improved performance. • Disadvantages — increased fatigue, family adjustment problems, increased scheduling problems, possible customer complaints, and union opposition. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 4: What are the alternative approaches to job design? • Flexible working hours. • Any work schedule that gives employees some choice in the pattern of their daily work hours. • Core time — all employees must be at work. • Flextime — allows employees to schedule around personal and family responsibilities. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 4: What are the alternative approaches to job design? • Potential benefits of flexible working hours: • People have greater autonomy in work scheduling while ensuring maintenance of work responsibilities. • Organizations can attract and retain employees who have special non-work responsibilities. • Worker morale may be improved. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 4: What are the alternative approaches to job design? • Job sharing. • One full-time job is split between two or more persons. • Work sharing. • An agreement between employees to cut back their work hours to avoid layoffs or termination. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 4: What are the alternative approaches to job design? • Potential advantages of work sharing: • Trained and loyal workers can be retained while temporarily cutting labor costs. • Continued work but with reduced earnings for those who would otherwise be laid off. • Potential disadvantages of work sharing; • Employees who might otherwise be protected by seniority may suffer an income loss. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 4: What are the alternative approaches to job design? • Telecommuting. • A work arrangement that allows a portion of scheduled work hours to be completed outside of the office. • Hoteling. • Virtual offices. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 4: What are the alternative approaches to job design? • Potential advantages of telecommuting: • Freedom from • Constraints of commuting. • Fixed hours. • Special work attire. • Direct contact with supervisors. • Increased productivity. • Fewer distractions. • Being one’s own boss. • Having more personal time. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 4: What are the alternative approaches to job design? • Potential disadvantages of telecommuting: • Working too much. • Having less personal time. • Difficulty in separating work and personal life. • Less time for family. • Feelings of isolation. • Loss of visibility for promotion. • Difficulties supervising work-at-home employees from a distance. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 4: What are the alternative approaches to job design? • Part-time work. • Work done on any schedule less than the standard 40-hour workweek and does not qualify person as a full-time employee. • Contingency workers • Part-time workers who supplement the full-time workforce, often on a long-term basis. • Now constitute 30 percent of the American workforce. Management 9/e - Chapter 14
Study Question 4: What are the alternative approaches to job design? • Implications of part-time work: • Provides employers with flexibility in controlling labor costs and dealing with cyclical labor demands. • Temporary workers may lack commitment and be less productive. • Contingency workers are often paid less and don’t receive important fringe benefits.
