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.
