Workplace motivation

Applying Motivational Theories

Herzberg posits that motivation is influenced by hygiene factors (which can demotivate if absent) and motivators (which can boost satisfaction when present). You will provide insights into motivation for a multi-generational workforce. Using the framework of McGregor’s Theory X and Theory Y, you will analyze how workplace scenarios align with or challenge these theories.

WFH, RTO, and Job Satisfaction

Evaluate the impact of work from home versus in-office (or return to office) work using McGregor’s Theory X and Theory Y. 

Use ChatGPT or another AI program to make connections between the theories and WFH vs. RTO. This will help you decide on optimal search terms to find quality resources supporting this section. If you use an idea provided by ChatGPT, you must cite and reference the program.
