Question
The belief that employees are capable of self-direction,
self-control, and possess creativity and imagination aligns with which motivation theory?Solution
• Theory X, proposed by Douglas McGregor, assumes employees inherently dislike work, avoid responsibility, and require close supervision with external control or threats to be productive. • Theory Y, in contrast, views work as a natural activity, suggesting employees can show initiative, creativity, self-motivation, and self-control when properly empowered and aligned with organizational goals. It assumes people seek responsibility and thrive when their higher-order needs (such as esteem and self-actualization) are fulfilled. • Theory Z (by William Ouchi) focuses on trust, teamwork, and long-term employment. • ERG Theory (Alderfer) classifies needs into Existence, Relatedness, and Growth. • Two-Factor Theory (Herzberg) distinguishes between hygiene factors and motivators. Thus, the statement corresponds to Theory Y.
961 × 4 ÷ 31 – 15% of 180 = ? – 73
1 + 1 + 1/2+ 1/3 + 1/6 + 1/4 is equal to ____
(225 + 125) ÷ 7 + 250 = ? + 20% of 800
128 ÷ 22 × ? = 15% of 300 ÷ 9
22.5% of 300 + 32.5% of 4500 =?
{(5/8) + (4/5)} × (?/19) = 33
1555.5 + 1000.8 – 1354.3 = ? + 52
(1520 - 1350) ÷ (550 – 500) = ?
108² + 99 X 98² =?
...[(11)2 - (12)2 + (5)3]2 = ?
