Week 2 Discussion: How to design jobs to enhance satisfaction and motivation: Job Characteristics Model<\/b><\/p>\n
Read the following: Herzberg\u2019s Motivation-Hygiene Theory.<\/p>\n
http:\/\/www.netmba.com\/mgmt\/ob\/motivation\/herzberg\/ <\/a><\/p>\n Herzberg\u2019s Theory suggests that pay and benefits are not motivators, because they do not satisfy the worker (who doesn\u2019t want more pay or vacation time?). However, they can cause dissatisfaction if not sufficient. Critically compare and contrast his theory to the Job Characteristics Model. For example: What factors leading to satisfaction (motivators) can be aligned with Job Characteristics or Critical Psychological States? Do you think any of Herzberg\u2019s dis-satisfiers (hygiene factors) align with Job Characteristics or Critical Psychological States? Does this mean one or both of these theories is wrong?<\/p>\n (Besides the source listed above, bring in and cite at least one other source of information for your initial post.) <\/p>\n Remember, after you submit your answer to the Discussion this week, you also need to respond to at least two of your classmates\u2019 posts. <\/p>\n (In total for this module\u2019s two-part Discussion Forum you should have contributed to at least two Discussion Question posts and four response posts to your classmates.) <\/p>\n You MUST participate in BOTH Week 1 and Week 2 Discussions to get credit for this module\u2019s Discussion Forum. <\/p>\n Posting early each week will allow for more opportunities for leading the discussions, making substantial contributions, and engaging in meaningful and mutual discussions with others<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Week 2 Discussion: How to design jobs to enhance satisfaction and motivation: Job Characteristics Model Read the following: Herzberg\u2019s Motivation-Hygiene Theory. http:\/\/www.netmba.com\/mgmt\/ob\/motivation\/herzberg\/ Herzberg\u2019s Theory suggests that pay and benefits are not motivators, because they do not satisfy the worker (who Read More …<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-117915","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.benedictsol.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117915","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.benedictsol.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.benedictsol.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.benedictsol.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.benedictsol.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=117915"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.benedictsol.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117915\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.benedictsol.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=117915"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.benedictsol.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=117915"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.benedictsol.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=117915"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
