• HRM policies and practices should pay attention to all of these needs – ranging from the most basic to the highest in order to achieve the overall goals of the organization.

• It is not enough that the individual employees are provided with their basic physiological and psychological needs but they have to be given the opportunity to participate in decision making processes in such a way that will be able to realize their own growth, development, and potential.

Implications of the ERG• Managers must understand that an

employee has various needs that must be satisfied at the same time.

• According to the ERG theory, if the manager concentrates solely on one need at a time, this will not effectively motivate the employee.

Implication of McClelland’s Theory for HRM

In designing and managing HR policies and practices, the HR practitioner should assume that all personnel have the potential for growth and development. Therefore, the agency must always provide the employees with ample opportunities for training and education, for promotion,

and other personnel development.

Page 15: Module 9 Motivation HRMD

Implication of McClelland’s Theory for HRM

• Supervisors, directors, or managers with a strong drive for power should have training in effective interpersonal and group skills so that their leadership skills will be used for enhancing the spirit of teamwork rather than for dominating or stifling creativity among subordinates.

Management Theories of Motivation

Theory X presents a pessimistic view of employees’ nature and behavior at work

Assumptions of Theory X•An average employee intrinsically does not like work and tries to escape it whenever possible.•Since the employee does not want to work, he must be persuaded, compelled, or warned with punishment so as to achieve organizational goals. A close supervision is required on part of managers. The managers adopt a more dictatorial style.

Management Theories of Motivation

• An average employee can learn to admit and recognize the responsibility. In fact, he can even learn to obtain responsibility.

• The employees have skills and capabilities. Their logical capabilities should be fully utilized. In other words, the creativity, resourcefulness and innovative potentiality of the employees can be utilized to solve organizational problems.

Page 20: Module 9 Motivation HRMD

Implications of Theory X and Theory Y

Theory X encourages use of tight control and supervision. It implies that employees are reluctant to organizational changes. Thus, it does not encourage innovation.

Implications of Theory X and Theory Y

Theory Y implies that the managers should create and encourage a work environment which provides opportunities to employees to take initiative and self-direction. Employees should be given opportunities to contribute to organizational well-being. Theory Y encourages decentralization of authority, teamwork and participative decision making in an organization.

Other Theories of Motivation• Herzberg’s Two-Factor Theory of Motivation              

In 1959, Frederick Herzberg, a behavioral scientist proposed a two-factor theory or the motivator-hygiene theory.

There are some job factors that result in satisfaction while there are other job factors that prevent dissatisfaction. According to Herzberg, the opposite of “Satisfaction” is “No satisfaction” and the opposite of “Dissatisfaction” is “No Dissatisfaction”.

Hygiene factors -  job factors which are essential for existence of motivation at workplace. These do not lead to positive satisfaction for long-term. The hygiene factors symbolized the physiological needs which the individuals wanted and expected to be fulfilled.

Page 25: Module 9 Motivation HRMD

• Motivational factors - hygiene factors cannot be regarded as motivators. The motivational factors yield m

• positive satisfaction. These factors are inherent to work. These factors motivate the employees for a superior performance. The motivators symbolized the psychological needs that were perceived as an additional benefit. drtareksweedan.blogspot.com

Page 26: Module 9 Motivation HRMD

Implication of Herzberg’s TheoryManagers must stress upon guaranteeing the adequacy of the hygiene factors to avoid employee dissatisfaction. Also, the managers must make sure that the work is stimulating and rewarding so that the employees are motivated to work and perform harder and better. This theory emphasize upon job-enrichment so as to motivate the employees. The job must utilize the employee’s skills and competencies to the maximum. Focusing on the motivational factors can improve work-quality.

Other Theories of Motivation

In 1960’s, Edwin Locke put forward the Goal-setting theory of motivation. This theory states that goal setting is essentially linked to task performance. It states that specific and challenging goals along with appropriate feedback contribute to higher and better task performance. In simple words, goals indicate and give direction to an employee about what needs to be done and how much efforts are required to be put in.

Reinforcement Theory of Motivation

This was proposed by BF Skinner and his associates. It states that individual’s behavior is a function of its consequences. It is based on “law of effect”, i.e, individual’s behavior with positive consequences tends to be repeated, but individual’s behavior with negative consequences tends not to be repeated.

Other Theories of Motivation

Page 30: Module 9 Motivation HRMD

Implication of Reinforcement Theory

Reinforcement theory explains in detail how an individual learns behavior. Managers who are making attempt to motivate the employees must ensure that they do not reward all employees simultaneously. They must tell the employees what they are not doing correct. They must tell the employees how they can achieve positive reinforcement.

Page 31: Module 9 Motivation HRMD

Equity TheoryThe core of the equity theory is the principle of

balance or equity. As per this motivation theory, an individual’s motivation level is correlated to his perception of equity, fairness and justice practiced by the management.

Other Theories of Motivation

Page 32: Module 9 Motivation HRMD

Implication of Equity Theory

Managers must know how to treat their employees with all fairness and justice, not only to attain the goals of the company, but also to boost the morale of each of the employees.

Page 33: Module 9 Motivation HRMD

SUMMARY

Motivation is an internal feeling which can be understood only by manager since he is in close contact with the employees. Needs, wants and desires are inter-related and they are the driving force to act. These needs can be understood by the manager and he can frame motivation plans accordingly.

Page 34: Module 9 Motivation HRMD
