This shows that both theory Y and expectancy theory adheres to each other. Theory Y
Th

explains which the employees are self-motivated while expectancy theory is where the
employees decide to behave in the certain way. This clearly shows where both theories have
relationships. The workers will act in certain way if they wanted to as the result it is depend
on either theory Y or theory X. The dependency of the worker relies on the worker’s effort

Theory Y worker are mostly influenced by something desirable outcome. They will do good
work because they see some type of reward occurring as a direct outcome of their actions
which how it will motivate the employees.
