• Even if an organization implements the best strategy and employsan appropriate organizational architecture and structure, still it mightan appropriate organizational architecture and structure, still it mightnot be effective because organizational members might not bemotivated to perform at a high level.
• Motivation Defined as the psychological forces acting on an individual that
determine: Direction of behavior—possible behaviors the individual could engage in.

Effort—how hard the individual will work. Persistence—whether the individual will keep trying or give up
It is important because it explains why people behave the waythey do in organizations
1. Definitions
MotivationMotivation cancan comecome fromfrom IntrinsicIntrinsic oror ExtrinsicExtrinsic sourcessources::
I t i i M ti ti• Intrinsic Motivation Behavior that is performed for its own sake.
The source of the motivation comes from actually engaging in the behavior. ie. Aschool teacher who really likes teaching.
The sense of accomplishment and achievement derived from doing the work itself.ie. A manager who helps his organization to achieve its goals and gain competitiveadvantage.
Remember job characteristics model from Chapter 9 ?

• Extrinsic Motivation Behavior that is performed to acquire material or social rewards or to avoid
punishment. The source of the motivation is the consequences of the behavior and not the
behavior itself. Ie. A stockbroker motivated by receiving high commission andstatus that goes along with the job.

1. Definitions
People join and are motivated to work in organizations to receivecertain outcomesoutcomes:
• Outcome Anything a person gets from a job or an organization
Pay, job security, autonomy, accomplishment.
Organizations hire people to obtain important inputsinputs:
• Input A thi t ib t t hi h j b i ti
MGT-101 Yiannos Rossides6
Anything a person contributes to his or her job or organization Time, effort, skills, knowledge, work behaviors.
• Managers use outcomes to motivate people to contribute their inputs to the organization.

2. Expectancy Theory
• States that motivation will be high when workers believe: High levels of effort will lead to high performance. Hi h f ill l d t th tt i t f d i d t High performance will lead to the attainment of desired outcomes.
• Major Factors of Motivation Expectancy—the belief that effort (input) will result in a certain level of
performance. EffortEffort willwill resultresult inin aa levellevel ofof performanceperformance.. Instrumentality—the belief that performance results in the attainment of
outcomes. PerformancePerformance leadsleads toto outcomesoutcomes.. Valence—how desirable each of the available outcomes from the job is to a
person. HowHow desirabledesirable anan outcomeoutcome isis toto aa personperson..
MGT-101 Yiannos Rossides8
• Motivation is highest when expectancy, instrumentality, and valencelevels are high. If one of the values is low, motivation will be low. Workers do not believe they can perform well. Workers do not believe that performance and rewards are closely linked. Workers do not value the rewards offered for performance.

3. Need Theories
• Need A requirement for survival and well being A requirement for survival and well-being.
• Need Theories Theories of motivation that focus on what needs people are trying
to satisfy at work and what outcomes will satisfy those needs. Based on the premise that people are motivated to obtain
outcomes at work to satisfy their needs. Managers must determine what needs a worker wants satisfied and ensure

Alderfer’s ERG Theory• As lower level needs become satisfied, a
person seeks to satisfy higher-level needs• A person can be motivated by needs at
more than one level at the same timeWhen people experience need frustration
MGT-101 Yiannos Rossides13
• When people experience need frustrationthey will focus on satisfying the needs atthe next-lowest level

3. Need TheoriesHerzberg’s Motivator-Hygiene
Theory• Focuses on outcomes that lead to higher
motivation and job satisfaction and thosemotivation and job satisfaction, and thoseoutcomes that can prevent dissatisfaction.MotivatorMotivator needsneeds relate to the nature of the work itself—autonomy,
responsibility, interesting work.HygieneHygiene needsneeds are related to the physical and psychological
context of the work—comfortable work environment, pay, jobsecurity.
MGT-101 Yiannos Rossides15
y Unsatisfied hygiene needs create dissatisfaction; satisfaction of hygiene
needs does NOT lead to motivation or job satisfaction. To have high motivation and job satisfaction, motivator needs must be
satisfied.
• Need for Achievement
3. Need TheoriesMcClelland’s Needs for
Achievement, Affiliation and Power
A strong need to perform challenging tasks well and meetpersonal standards for excellence.
• Need for AffiliationA concern for good interpersonal relations, being liked, and
getting along.

• Need for PowerA desire to control or influence others.

4. Adam’s Equity Theory
• Focuses on people’s perceptions of the fairness(or lack of fairness) of their work outcomes in(or lack of fairness) of their work outcomes inproportion to their work inputs. Motivation is influenced by the comparison of one’s own
outcome/input ratio with outcome/input ratio of a referent (anotherperson or group of people who are perceived to be similar tooneself).
In such a case, one’s perceptions of outcomes and inputs (and not
MGT-101 Yiannos Rossides17
, p p p (any objective indicator) are key.
Equity exists when a person perceives that their outcome/inputratio to be equal to the referent’s ratio. If the referent receives more outcomes, they should also give more inputs to
achieve equity.

• Inequity exists when worker’s outcome/input ratio is not equal toreferent.
4. Adam’s Equity Theory
Underpayment inequity: ratio is less than the referent. Workers feel they are not getting the outcomes they should for their inputs.
Overpayment inequity: ratio is higher than the referent. Workers feel they are getting more outcomes than they should for their inputs.
• Restoring Equity: Inequity creates tension in workers causing them toattempt to restore equity. In underpayment, workers may reduce input levels to correct (rebalance) the ratio or
seek a raise
MGT-101 Yiannos Rossides19
seek a raise. In overpayment, workers may change the referent person and readjust their ratio
perception. If inequity persists, workers will often choose to leave the organization.
5. Goal – Setting Theory
• Focuses on identifying the types of goals that are effective inproducing high levels of motivation and explaining why goals haveth ff tthese effects. Considers how managers can ensure that workers focus their inputs in the
direction of high performance and the achievement of organizational goals.• Goal
What a person is trying to accomplish.• Characteristics of Motivating Goals
Specific and not vague in providing direction. Diffi lt b t t i ibl t tt i
MGT-101 Yiannos Rossides20
Difficult but not impossible to attain. Accepted and committed to by workers. Feedback on goal attainment is important.
• Goals point out what is important to the firm. Workers should be encouraged to develop action plans to attain goals.

and performance by linking outcomes toperformance and the attainment of goals.
• Learning A relatively permanent change in person’s knowledge or
behavior that results from practice or experience.
MGT-101 Yiannos Rossides21
6. Learning TheoriesOperant Conditioning Theory
• Operant Conditioning People learn to perform behaviors that lead to desired consequences and learn not
t f b h i th t l d t d i dto perform behaviors that lead to undesired consequences. Linking specific behaviors to the attainment of specific outcomes can motivate high
performance and prevent behaviors that detract from organizational effectiveness.
Operant Conditioning Tools used by management are:i. Positive Reinforcement > Getting desired outcomes for performing
needed work behaviors> Positive reinforcers: Pay, praises, orpromotions
ii. Negative Reinforcement > Eliminating undesired outcomes once thed i d b h i N ti i f i i i
MGT-101 Yiannos Rossides22
desired behavior occurs > Negative reinforcers: criticisms, pay cuts,suspension
iii. Extinction > Curtailing the performance of a dysfunctional behavior byeliminating whatever is reinforcing it. > Behavior is not rewarded and overtime, the worker stops performing it.
12
iv. Punishment > Administering an undesired/negativeconsequence to immediately stop a dysfunctional behavior. >
6. Learning TheoriesOperant Conditioning Theory
q y p yManager administers an undesired consequence to worker (verbalreprimand, demotion, pay cut).
• Organizational Behavior Modification (OB MOD) The systematic application of operant conditioning techniques to
organizationally functional behaviors and discourage dysfunctionalbehaviors.

6. Learning TheoriesSocial Learning Theory
• A theory that takes into account how learningand motivation are influenced by people’sand motivation are influenced by people sthoughts and beliefs and their observations ofother people’s behavior.
• It extends operant conditioning’s contribution tounderstanding of motivation by explaining:
i. Vicarious Learning (Observational Learning) L i th t h l i ti t d t f
MGT-101 Yiannos Rossides25
Learning that occurs when a learner is motivated to perform abehavior by watching another person perform and be rewarded. People are motivated to imitate models who are highly competent, expert,
receive attractive reinforcers, and are friendly or approachable.
ii. Self-Reinforcement A d i d tt ti t d th t i
6. Learning TheoriesSocial Learning Theory
Any desired or attractive outcome or award that a person can givehimself or herself for good performance. “The self-management of behavior” i.e. having dinner out
iii. Self-efficacy A person’s belief about his or her ability to perform a behavior
successfully.
MGT-101 Yiannos Rossides26
y Influences motivation both when managers provide reinforcement and when
workers themselves provide it.

paymentpayment andand suggestssuggests thatthat paypay shouldshould bebe basedbased onon performanceperformance:: Expectancy: pay is an instrumentality (and outcome), must be high for
motivation to be high. Need Theory: pay is used to satisfy many needs. Equity Theory: pay is given in relation to inputs.
MGT-101 Yiannos Rossides27
q y y p y g p Goal Setting Theory: pay is linked to attainment of goals. Learning Theory: outcomes (pay), is distributed upon performance of
functional behaviors.
• Merit Pay Plan refers to a compensation plan that bases payon individual, group and/or organization performance.
7. Pay and Motivation
, g p / g p Individual plan: when individual performance (sales) can accurately measured. Group plan: when group that works closely together is measured and rewarded as
a group. Organization plan: when group or individual outcomes not easily measured.
• Salary Increase or Bonus? > Motivational Value of a Bonus IsHigher When: Salary levels are unrelated to current performance. > Changes in other
MGT-101 Yiannos Rossides28
y p gcompensation items (cost of living, seniority) are not having a large effect inincreasing compensation. > Salaries rarely change and performance does.
• Benefits of Using Bonuses Do not become permanent part of compensation, are more directly tied to current
performance and provide more flexibility in distributing rewards.
