and PayMotivation, Performance, and PayIncentivesFinancial rewards paid to workers whose production exceeds a predetermined standard1-4Individual DifferencesIndividual DifferencesLaw of Individual DifferencesThe fact that people differ in personality, abilities, values, and needs.Different people react to different incentives in different ways.Managers should be aware of employee needs and fine-tune the incentives offered to meets their needs.Money is not the only motivator.1-5Needs and MotivationNeeds and MotivationAbraham Maslow’s Hierarchy of NeedsFive increasingly higher-level needs:physiological (food, water, sex)security (a safe environment)social (relationships with others)self-esteem (a sense of personal worth)self-actualization (becoming the desired self)Lower level needs must be satisfied before higher level needs can be addressed or become of interest to the individual.1-6Needs and MotivationNeeds and MotivationHerzberg’s Hygiene–Motivator theory Hygienes (extrinsic job factors)Inadequate working conditions, salary, and incentive pay can cause dissatisfaction and prevent satisfaction.Motivators (intrinsic job factors)Job enrichment (challenging job, feedback and recognition) addresses higher-level (achievement, self-actualization) needs.The best way to motivate someone is to organize the job so that doing it helps satisfy the person’s higher-level needs.1-7Instrumentality and RewardsInstrumentality and RewardsVroom’s Expectancy TheoryA person’s motivation to exert some level of effort is a function of three things: Expectancy: that effort will lead to performance.Instrumentality: the connection between performance and the appropriate reward.Valence: the value the person places on the reward.Motivation = E x I x VIf any factor (E, I, or V) is zero, then there is no motivation to work toward the reward.Employee confidence building and training, accurate appraisals, and knowledge of workers’ desired rewards can increase employee motivation.1-8Pay-for-performance: The ChallengesPay-for-performance: The ChallengesThe “The “do only what you get paid fordo only what you get paid for” syndrome” syndromeUnethical
