While organization design influences the success or failure of a company, the human factor plays a key role as well. Because of this, your study of organization design would be incomplete without an investigation of theories about human motivation.
Instructions
Research for articles on human motivation, including at least two of the following:
- Herzberg's motivator-hygiene theory (sometimes referred to as two-factor theory).
- McClelland's need for achievement theory (sometimes referred to as acquired needs theory).
- Equity theory.
- Expectancy theory.
Write a short paper addressing how these theories apply to human performance in an organizational context.
Review the Organizational Structure, Learning, and Performance Library Guide, which will assist you with using the Capella library for research in this course.
