MGT 125 Lecture Notes - Lecture 29: Distributive Justice, Equity Theory, Procedural Justice
Document Summary
Motivation to work depends on relationship between three factors: expectancy. Belief that working hard will result in a desired level of task performance being achieved (effort-performance expectancy) Belief that successful performance will be followed by rewards (performance outcome expectancy: valence. The value of a person assigns to the possible rewards and other work related outcomes. Is based on the logic of social comparisons and that perceived inequity is a motivating state. Perceived inequity: occurs when people feel rewards for their efforts in comparison to others" rewards are unfair. Equity theory can concern perceived fairness of outcomes (distributive justice) or the way the distribution of rewards are decided (procedural justice) Controlling is the management function most concerned with performance outcomes. Value is created when resources are used in the right way, at the right time, at minimum cost to create high-quality goods/services. An output measure of task or goal accomplishment: performance efficiency.
