The document discusses several motivational theories including Maslow's hierarchy of needs, Herzberg's two-factor theory, McClelland's acquired needs theory, equity theory, and expectancy theory. It analyzes the key elements and implications of each theory on motivating employees, such as understanding an individual's dominant needs, ensuring fair treatment and rewards, and establishing a clear link between performance and rewards. The theories provide insights for managers on evaluating what motivates different employees and how to apply motivational strategies appropriately.

66. Introduction to Equity Theory
• First developed in 1963 by John Stacey Adams
• Employees seek to maintain equity between the
inputs that they bring to a job and the outcomes that
they receive from it against the perceived inputs and
outcomes of others.
• The structure of equity in the workplace is based on
the ratio of inputs to outcomes

69. Motivation Theory – Equity Theory
A person might take several actions to reduce inequity:
– Increase efforts on the job
– Reduce efforts on the job
– Quit the job.
– Request a pay increase.
Implication – It is human nature for employees to
compare their efforts and rewards to others,
therefore managers need to be as fair as possible in
rewarding all employees for their efforts.
70. Equity Theory
1)Equity:
A person feels equitably treated when his outcome/input ratio
is equal to other person’s outcome/input ratio.
Individual’s outcome = Other’s outcome
Individual’s input Other’s input
Equitably paid workers are said to feel satisfied.
71.
72. Consequences of Inequity
Based on equity theory, when employees
perceive an inequity, they can be predicted to
make one of six choices.
•They change their inputs.
•They change their outcomes
•They distort perceptions of self
•They distort perceptions of others
•They leave the field
73. Motivation Theory – Expectancy Theory
Expectancy Theory is best expressed in the following
formula:
Implication – Managers must reward achievements in ways
that are meaningful to individual employees.
.
74.
75. Motivation Theory – Expectancy Theory
An employee’s motivation will be maximized when
they answer “yes” to the following questions:
1. If I give a maximum effort, will it be recognized?
2. If it is recognized, will it then be rewarded?
3. If it is rewarded, are the rewards attractive to me?
If the employee does not expect the answer to be
“yes” to each question, they won’t be motivated
Q. Does this apply to you personally?
76. Q. In the workplace, what motivates you the
most?
Q. Other than using monetary incentives, how
would you motivate your followers?
