Lecture 1: Motivation
Performance =f(Motivation x Ability)
Motivation are processes that account for an individuals intensity direction and
persistence of effort to!ard a "oal
Ability is the mental or physical capacity to do somethin"
#asic motivation process $xpectancy theory: %eed theories focus on !hat motivates behavior
$xpectancy theory (formulated by &ictor &room) focuses on
o ho! employees decide !hich behaviors to perform
o ho! much effort to exert
o individuals as rational careful processors of information
$xpectancy ' actors:
$xpectancy is belief that effort leads to a specific level of performance (varies from
to 1)
*nfluences on individuals expectancies:
o +elf,efficacy (affected by previous success at tas-)
o .elp received from others
o *nformation materials e/uipment necessary to complete tas-

*nstrumentality is belief about extent to !hich performance !ill lead to
attainment of a particular outcome (varies from ,1 to 01)o *nstrumentality of 01: Attainment of particular outcome is totally dependent on
tas- performanceo *nstrumentality of ,1: Performin" certain behaviors reduces the chance of
obtainin" outcome
&alence is desirability of an outcome to an individual (varies from ,x to 0x)
o epends on an individuals needs (2 Maslo!)
o 3emember: 3e!ard system represents mix of intrinsic and extrinsic re!ards
(monetary re!ards should be at least 45 above employees base pay to trulymotivate people)
o 6our effort affects performance7 People have a locus of control but cannot
al!ays control everythin"7o 6ou are only "oin" to be motivated if you care about the outcome
Model deceptively simple but there are problems:
o 8endency to assume that performance means easily measurable individual
bottom,line resultso 3e!ards can easily be tied to performance !hen employee is relatively
autonomous7 #ut !hat happens if employee is part of lar"er "roup9o 8imeliness of re!ard administration is easy to achieve !ith intrinsic re!ards
!hich flo! from performance itself (employee re!ard themselves) but moredifficult for extrinsic re!ards such as pay increases or promotions
o Meetin" the re/uirement of e/uity both external (other or"aniations) and
internal e/uity (same or"aniation)
Additions
o e"ree to !hich effort leads to performance is modified by employees
abilities (s-ills trainin" etc7)o Ability of valued re!ards to satisfy needs is modified by perceived e/uity
$/uity 8heory: $/uity theory holds that motivation is a function of fairness in social
exchan"eso ;hen victimied by unfair social exchan"es corrective action is ta-en (from
sli"ht chan"e in attitude or behavior to stealin" and tryin" to harm someone)

-ind of effort !e should be see-in"
Persistence: measures ho! lon" a person can maintain effort
Maslows Hierarchy of Needs: hypothesied that !ithin every human bein" there
exists a hierarchy of five needs:17 Physiological7 .un"er thirst shelter sex other bodily needsB7 Safety7 +ecurity and protection from physicalDemotional harm'7 Social7 Affection belon"in"ness acceptance friendshipK7 Estee7 *nternal factors such as self respect autonomy and achievement
and external factors li-e status reco"nition and attentionG7 Self!act"ali#ation7 rive to become !hat !e are capable of becomin"
includes "ro!th achievin" our potential and self fulfillment
$heory % and $heory &o ou"las McEre"or proposed B distinct vie!s of human bein"s: one basically
ne"ative (8heory ) and the other basically positive (8heory 6)o $heory %: mana"ers believe employees inherently disli-e !or- and must
therefore be directed or even coerced into performin" ito $heory &: mana"ers assume employees can vie! !or- as bein" as natural as
rest or play and therefore the avera"e person can learn to accept and even see-responsibility
$wo 'actor $heory
o #elieved an individuals relationship to !or- is basic and that attitude to!ard
!or- can very !ell determine success or failureo ?oncluded that the replies people gave when they felt good about their jobs
differed significantly from the replies given when they felt bad
o *ntrinsic factors such as advancement reco"nition responsibility and
achievement seem related to >ob satisfactiono 3espondents !ho felt "ood about their !or- tended to attribute these factors to
themselves J dissatisfied respondents tended to cite extrinsic factors i7e7supervision pay company policies and !or-in" conditions

McClellands $heory of Needs
o eveloped by avid Mc?lelland focuses on ' needs:
Need for achieveent(nAch): drive to excel to achieve in relation to
a set of standards to strive to succeed

Need for power: (nPo!) need to ma-e others behave in a !ay in !hich
they !ould not have behaved other!ise Need for affiliation(nAff): desire for friendly and close interpersonal
relationshipso ocused most attention on nAch7
.i"h achievers perform best !hen they perceive their probability ofsuccess as 7G or a G,G chance of success
isli-e "amblin" both !ith hi"h odds and lo! odds because then there
*s no challen"e to their s-ills J li-e to set "oals that re/uire stretchin"themselves a little
o 17 When jobs have a high degree of personal responsibility and feedback and
an intermediate degree of risk, high achievers are strongly motivatedsuccessful in entrepreneurial activities such as runnin" their o!n businessesand mana"in" self contained units !ithin lar"e or"aniations
o B7A high need to achieve does not necessarily make someone a good manager,
especially in large organizations.*nterested in ho! !ell they do personally
and not in influencin" others to do !ell7o '7Needs for affiliation and power tend to be closely related to managerial
successbest managers are high in their need for power and low in their need
for affiliation.A hi"h po!er motive may be a re/uirement for mana"erialeffectiveness
Conteporary $heories
Self deterination theory: people prefer to feel they have control over their actions
so anythin" that ma-es a previously en>oyed tas- feel li-e an obli"ation than a freelychosen activity !ill undermine motivation
Cognitive eval"ation theory: extrinsic re!ards !ill reduce intrinsic interest in a tas-
!hen people are paid for !or- it feels less li-e somethin" they !ant to do and moreli-e somethin" they have to do
Self concordance: considers ho! stron"ly peoples reasons for pursuin" "oals are
consistent ! their interest and core values J if individuals pursue "oals bc of anintrinsic interest they are more li-ely to attain their "oals and are happy even if theydont because the process of strivin" to!ard them is fun
