Application of Early Theories of Motivation
Weston has two very different first- line supervisors who report directly to him. Aaron really "cracks the whip" on his employees and firmly believes in strict controls and punishment for those employees who do not perform up to company expectations. Zach, on the other hand, has very few controls and believes that as long as people know what their objectives are, they will exercise self- control and self- direction. Aaron has been trying to use working conditions to increase the level of productivity in his department.
