Vrooms Expectancy TheoryVrooms Expectancy Theory

He proposes three variables to account for this - Valence, Expectancy and

Instrumentality.

Expectancy is the belief that increased effort will lead to increased performance i.e. if I

work harder then this will be better. This is affected by such things as:

Having the right resources available (e.g. raw materials, time)

Having the right skills to do the jobHaving the necessary support to get the job done (e.g. supervisor support, or correct

information on the job)

Instrumentality is the belief that if you perform well that a valued outcome will be

received i.e. if I do a good job, there is something in it for me. This is affected by such

things as:

Clear understanding of the relationship between performance and outcomes e.g. the

rules of the reward game

Trust in the people who will take the decisions on who gets what outcome

Transparency of the process that decides who gets what outcome


27/32



Continue...Continue...

Valence is the importance that the individual places upon the expected

outcome. For example, if I am mainly motivated by money, I might not value

offers of additional time off.

Expectancy theory works on perceptions so even if an employer thinks they

have provided everything appropriate for motivation, and even if this works

with most people in that organization it doesnt mean that someone wont

perceive that it doesnt work for them.
