Many different ways to motivate employees.
People have preferences for different types of motivation.
Link Motivation to leadership style Link Motivation to organizational culture.
Performance = motivation X ability X situational factors (leadership support, resources, peer support, etc).
Attributions. Ability is relatively fixed. Ability linked to
wages. Supervisors can work largely on
motivation or situational factors. In this class focus on leadership support and peer support (teams). Other classes resource (ex. MIS).
Basic job motivation. Most firms have average workers. Exceptional firms motivate average workers. (note some firms have high pay and select talented employees).
Change efforts Supervision is easier if people are trying.
Describe the circumstances.

• Intrinsic Motivation being driven by positive feelings associated with doing well on a task or job
• Extrinsic Motivation motivation caused by the desire to attain specific outcomes

Low cost Persistence is high Unleash employees for change. Builds relationships internally and
externally
Control freaks nightmare Strategic change is difficult.
Often ignored in today’s work environment.
Its what many of the best firms do! Very few average or below average firms do not.
Not leadership per se but more organizational culture.
Leadership style needs to be supportive to create the culture.
Many different approaches. Debate highlighted these issues.
Discussed earlier.

Perceived Justice is important to employee.
Some are more equity sensitive than others.
Depends. Some questions. Debate if pay should be
made public. What would equity theory suggest?
Susan is a single parent. She needs to come in late to drop her kids at school. How do you manage this? How could equity theory guide your choices?
Can you be best friends or have intimate relations with your one subordinate?
Here is a tough one. Which leadership style is most equity sensitive? Least equity sensitive?
Assumes People will do what is most rewarding for them.
So as students, choice to work and earn more money or study.
Work for a course where all get As or course where full range distribution.
Work in a course where can get an A or work in a course where lucky to get B but unlikely to fail.
What gets you ahead on your job. Playing golf with your boss or doing a good job.
Your job is MIS systems. You are the nerd of all nerds. Love programming and hate people. Job requires meeting clients needs. Spend more time programming or talking to clients?
Effort Performance Outcomes
Vroom’s Expectancy Theory
•Expectancy belief that effort leads to a specific level of performance
•Instrumentality a performance outcome perception
•Valence the value of a reward or outcome
9-14
Factors that Influence and Employee’s Expectancy
Perceptions• Self-esteem• Self-efficacy• Previous success at the task• Help received from a
supervisor and subordinates• Information necessary to
complete the task• Good materials and equipment
to do work with
9-15
Written statements/policies Historical evidence. Past perceptions from experiences of self
and others Role ambiguity
Individual differences.
Using expectancy theory, what would you do using expectancy theory.
Make reward systems explicit and clear. Make job standards explicit and clear. Prepare people to succeed at job
standards. Links to which leadership style. Expectancies are supervisory based.
Instrumentalities can be supervisor or organizational culture.
Prerequisites to Linking Performance and Rewards
Managers should: Develop and
communicate performance standards
Give valid and accurate performance ratings
Determine the relative mix of individual vs. team contribution to performance and reward accordingly
Use the performance ratings to differentially allocate rewards among employees
9-20
Very general and difficult to implement in reality.
My favorite extrinsic mode of motivation. Effective managers work with
subordinates to set specific, objective performance standards. All jobs.

Insights from Goal Setting Research
1) Difficult goals lead to higher performance
2) Specific, difficult goals lead to higher performance for simple rather than complex tasks
3) Feedback enhances the effect of specific, difficult goals
4) Participative goals, assigned goals, and self-set goals are equally effective
5) Goal commitment and monetary incentives affect goal-setting outcomes

Goals are a tool to both motivate and identify performance problems (performance management).
Goals setting done jointly long time frame.
Monitor (indirectly) if goals are being attained.
Provide feedback daily, weekly, monthly
Supervisor monitors. Gives recognition if goals on target Problems solves if goals are not on
target. Done in supportive manner. What does supervisor need to do to help? What does subordinate need to do to help?
Bonuses given if goals are met.
But not widely used.
Steps to adoption are specific and clear. Monitoring and feedback. Leadership style. Organizational culture.
Game playing/Ethical lapses with outcome measurements.
Poor goal assessment.
Different approachesChoice based on beliefs about employees,
leadership style and organizational culture.
All can be proven to be effective at achieving different things.
