15. Theory X and Theory Y (MacGregor’s Management Styles) Theory X • people dislike work & will avoid it when possible • workers must be threatened with punishment to work • workers prefer to be directed, avoid responsibility, have little ambition & want security • motivators are fear & money Theory Y • people naturally like work • people work toward goals • commitment depends on rewards • people seek responsibility • people use imagination, cleverness & creativity to solve problems • the average person’ s intellectual potential is only partially realized • people are motivated by a variety of rewards
16. Herzberg’s Motivating Factors (job content) Hygiene • company policy & administration • supervision • working conditions • interpersonal relations • salary, status, job security Motivators • work itself • achievement • recognition • responsibility • growth & advancement
17. Equity theory • Employees expect fair return for work: “equity norm” • Equity norm relative to coworkers: "comparison other" • If employees feel they are treated unfairly (outputs unequal to inputs)? – Cognitive distortion – Alter inputs/outputs – Leave organization
18. Equity Theory • People compare total inputs to outputs • Different people value inputs & outputs differently • OK for senior employees to earn more, but too much inequality is demotivating • Perceptions of inputs/outputs may be inaccurate
19. Equity Theory • Underpaid? • Overpaid?
