Locke and Latham’s Goal Setting
Theory
Difficult goals lead to the best job performance.
Specific goals lead to better performance than
no goals.
High levels of commitment to goals increase
performance.
To influence performance, workers must have
specific feedback about their results.
Goal setting can be harmful.
Behavioral Theories
Behavioral theories of motivation assume that
the positive or negative consequences of
behaviors determine whether a behavior will
be repeated or stopped.
The reinforcement theory assumes that
motivated behavior is caused by the
consequences that follow a behavior.
Reinforcers: positive, negative, extrinsic,
intrinsic.
Organizational Behavior
Modification
Organizational behavior modification is the
systematic application of learning principles in
order to change behavior in an entire
organization. The focus is on the whole, rather
than the single slice of pie.
