Employee Motivation and the Concept of "Flow"
1. How can an employer motivate an individual to achieve? One idea is to have employees believe that they are perceived as competent at the desired skill or task (that there is an expectation for success and achievement is valued)." Do you feel valued as a competent employee in your workplace? Why or why not? How do you think this affects your motivation and the motivation of others?
2. The concept of "flow" Can you recall and describe a situation in which you felt the "flow" experience. How might you foster this "flow" experience in your workplace for yourself and for others?
