文档简介

1、外文文献one more time: how do you motivate employeeshow many articles, books, speeches, and workshops have pleaded plaintively, ”how do i get an employee to do what i want?”the psychology of motivation is tremendously complex, and what has been unraveled with any degree of assurance is small indeed. but

2、 the dismal ratio of knowledge to speculation has not dampened the enthusiasm for new forms of snake oil that are constantly coming on the market, many of them with academic testimonials. doubtless this article will have no depressing impact on the market for snake oil, but since the ideas expressed

3、 in it have been tested in many corporations and other organizations, it will help-i hope-to redress the imbalance in the aforementioned ratio. what is the simplest, surest, and most direct way of getting someone to do something? ask? but if the person responds that he or she does not want to do it,

4、 then that calls for psychological consultation to determine the reason for such obstinacy. tell the person? the response shows that he or she does not understand you, and now an expert in communication methods has to be brought in to show you how to get through. give the person a monetary incentive

5、? i do not need to remind the reader of the complexity and difficulty involved in setting up and administering an incentive system. show the person? this means a costly training program. we need a simple way.every audience contains the “direct action?” manager who shouts,” kick the person!” and this

6、 type of manager is right. the surest and least circumlocuted way of getting someone to dosomething is to administer a kick in the pants-to give what might be called the kita.there are various forms of kita, and here are some of them:negative physical kita. this is a literal application of the term

7、and was frequently used in the past. it has ,however, three major drawbacks:(1)it is inelegant;(2)it contradicts the precious image of benevolence that most organizations cherish; and (3)since it is a physical attack, it directly stimulates the autonomic nervous system, and this often results in neg

8、ative feedback-the employee may just kick you in return. these factors give rise to certain taboos against negative physical kita.in uncovering infinite sources of psychological vulnerabilities and the appropriate methods to play tunes on them, psychologists have come to the rescue of those who are

9、no longer permitted to use negative physical kita.” he took my rug away”; “i wonder what she meant by that;” the boss is always going around me”-these symptomatic expressions of ego sores that have been rubbed raw are the result of application of:negative psychological kita. this has several advanta

10、ges over negative physical kita. first, the cruelty is not visible; the bleeding is internal and comes much later. second, since it affects the higher cortical centers of the brain with its inhibitory powers, it reduces the possibility of physical backlash. third, since the number of psychological p

11、ains that a person can feel is almost infinite, the direction and site possibilities of the kita are increased many times. fourth, the person administering the kick cans manager to be above it all and let the system accomplish the dirty work. fifth, those who practice it receive some ego satisfactio

12、n (one-upmanship), whereas they would find drawing blood abhorrent. finally, if the employee does complain, he or she can always be accused of being paranoid; there is no tangible evidence of an actual attack.now, what does negative kita accomplish?if i kick you in the rear (physically or psychologi

13、cally), who is motivated? i am motivated; you move! negative kita does not lead to motivation, but to movement .so:positive kita. let us consider motivation. if i say to you,” do this for me or the company, and in return i will give you a reward, and incentive, more status, a promotion, all the quid

14、 profuse that exist in the industrial organization,” am i motivating you? the overwhelming opinion i receive from management people is,” yes, this is motivation.”i have a year-old schnauzer. when it was a small puppy and i wanted it to move, i kick it in the rear and it moved. now that i have finish

15、ed its obedience training, i hold up a dog biscuit when i want the schnauzer to move. in this instance, who is motivated-i or the dog? the dog wants the biscuit, but it is i who want it to move. again, i am the one who is motivated, and the dog is the one who moves. in this instance all i did was ap

16、ply kita frontally; i exerted a pull instead of a push. when industry wishes to use such positive kitas, it has available an incredible number and variety of dog biscuits (jelly beans for humans) to wave in front of employee to get them to jump. why is it that managerial audiences are quick to see t

17、hat negative kita is not motivation, while they are almost unanimous in their judgment that positive kita is motivation? it is because negative kita is rape, and positive kita is seduction. but it is infinitely worse to be seduced than to be raped; the latter is an unfortunate occurrence, while the

18、former signifies that you were a party to your own downfall. this is why positive kita is so popular: it is a tradition; it is the american way. the organization does not have to kick you; you kick yourself.why is kita not motivation?if i kick my dog (from the front or the back), he will move. and w

19、hen i want him again. similarly, i can charge a persons battery, and then recharge it, and recharge it again. but it is only when one has a generator of ones own that we can talk about motivation. one the needs no outside stimulation. one wants to do it.with this in mind, we can review some positive

20、 kita personnel practices that were developed as attempts to instill “motivation”1、reducing time spent at work. this represents a marvelous way of motivating people to work-getting them off the job! we have reduced (formally and informally) the time spent on the job over the last 50 or 60 years unti

21、l we are finally on the way to the “612-day weekend.” an interesting of off-hour recreation programs. the philosophy here seems to be that those who play together, work together. the fact is that motivated people seek more hours of work, not fewer.2、spiraling wages. have these motivated people? yes,

22、 to seek the next wage increase. some medievalists still can be heard to say that a good depression will get employees moving. they feel that if rising wages dont or wont do the job, reducing them will.3、fringe benefits. industry has outdone the most welfare-minded of welfare states in dispensing cr

23、adle-to-the-grave succor. one company i know of had an informal” fringe benefit of the mouth club”going for a while. the cost of fringe benefits in this country has reached approximately 25 of the wage dollar, and we still cry for motivation.people spend less time working for more money and more sec

24、ondly than ever before, and the trend cannot be reversed. these benefits are no longer rewards; they are rights. a 6-day week is inhuman, a 10-hour day is exploitation, extended medical coverage is a basic decency, and stock options are the salvation of american initiative. unless the ante is contin

25、uously raised, the psychological reaction of employee is that the company is turning back the clock.when industry began to realize that both the economic nerve and the lazy nerve of their employees had insatiable appetites, it started to listen to the behavioral scientists who, more out of a humanis

26、t tradition than from scientific study, criticized management for not knowing how to deal with people. the next kita easily followed.4、human relations training. over 30 year of teaching and, in many instances, of practicing psychological approaches to handing people have resulted in coyly human rela

27、tions programs and, in the end, the same question: how do you motivate workers? here, too, escalations have taken place. thirty years ago it was necessary to request, “please dont spit on the floor.” today the same admonition requires three”pleases” before the employee fells that a superior has demo

28、nstrated the psychologically proper attitude.the failure of human relations training to produce motivation led to the conclusion that supervisors or managers themselves were not psychologically true to themselves in themselves in their practice of interpersonal decency. so an advanced form of human

29、relations kita, sensitivity training, was unfolded.5、sensitivity training. do you really, really understand yourself? do you really, really, really cooperate? the failure of sensitivity training is now being explained, by those who have become opportunistic exploiters of the technique, as a failure

30、to really (five time) conduct proper sensitivity training course.with the realization that there are only temporary gains form comfort and economic and interpersonal kita, personnel managers concluded that the fault lay not in what they were doing, but in the employees failure to appreciate what the

31、y were doing. this opened up the field of communications, a whole new are of “scientifically” sanctioned kita.6、communications. the professor of communications was invited to join the faculty of management training programs and help in making employees understand what management was doing for them.

32、house organs, briefing sessions, supervisory instruction on the importance of communication, and all sorts of propaganda have proliferated until today there is even an international council of industrial editors. but no motivation resulted, and the obvious thought occurred that perhaps management wa

33、s not hearing what the employees were saying. that led to the next kita.7、two-way communication. management ordered morale surveys, suggestion plans, and group participation programs. then both employees and management were communicating and listening to each other more than ever, but without much i

34、mprovement in motivation.the behavioral scientists began to take another look at their conceptions and their data, and they took human relations one step further. a glimmer of truth was beginning to show through in the writings of the so-called higher-order-need psychologists. people, so they said,

35、want to actualize themselves. unfortunately, the “actualizing” psychologists got mixed up with the human relations psychologists, and a new kita emerged.8、job participation. though it may not have been the theoretical intention, job participation often became a “give them the big picture” approach.

36、for example, if a man is tightening 10,000 nuts a day on an assembly line with a torque wrench, tell him he is building a chevrolet. another approach had the goal of giving employees a “feeling” that they are determining, in some measure, what they do on the job. the goal was to provide a sense of a

37、chievement rather than a substantive achievement in the task. real achievement, of course, requires a task that makes it possible. but still there was no motivation. this led to the inevitable conclusion that the employees must be sick, and therefore to the next kita.9、employee counseling. the initi

38、al use of this form of kita in a systematic fashion can be credited to the hawthorne experiment of the western electric company during the early 1930s.at that time; it was found that the employees harbored irrational feelings that were interfering with the rational operation of the factory. counseli

39、ng in this instance was a means of letting the employees unburden themselves by talking to someone about their problems. although the counseling techniques were primitive, the program was large indeed.the counseling approach suffered as a result of experiences during word war , when the programs the

40、mselves were found to be interfering with the operation of the organizations; the counselors had forgotten their role of benevolent listeners and were attempting to do something about the problems that they heard about. psychological counseling, however, has managed to survive the negative impact of

41、 word war experiences and today is beginning to flourish with renewed sophistication. but, alas, many of these programs, like all the others, do not seem to have lessened the pressure of demands to find out how to motivate workers. hygiene vs motivatorslet me rephrase the perennial question this way

42、: how do you install a generator in an employee? a brief review of my motivation-hygiene theory of job attitudes is required before theoretical and practical suggestions can be offered. the theory was first drawn from an examination of events in the lives of engineers and accountants. at least 16 ot

43、her investigations, using a wide variety of populations(including some in the communist countries),have since been completed, marking the original research one of the most replicated studies in the field of job attitudes. the finding of these studies, along with corroboration from many other investi

44、gations using different procedures, suggest that the factors involved in producing job satisfaction(and motivation) are separate and distinct from the factors that lead to job dissatisfaction. since separate factors need to be considered, depending on whether job satisfaction or job dissatisfaction

45、is being examined, it follows that these two feeling are not opposites of each other. the opposite of job satisfaction; and similarly, the oppsitive of job dissatisfaction is not job satisfaction, but no job dissatisfaction.sating the concept presents a problem in semantics, for we normally think of

46、 satisfaction and dissatisfaction as opposites-i.e., what is not satisfying must be dissatisfying, and vice versa. but when it comes to understanding the behavior of people in it comes to understanding the behavior of people in their job, more than a play on words is involved.two different needs of

47、human doing are involved here. one set of needs can be thought of as stemming from humankinds animal naturethe built-in drive to avoid pain from the environment, plus all the learned drives that become conditioned to the basic biological needs. for example, hunger, a basic biological drive, makes it

48、 necessary to earn money, and then money becomes a specific drive. the other set of needs relates to achieve and, through achievement, to experience psychological growth; in the industrial setting, they are the job content, contrariwise, the stimuli inducing pain-avoidance behavior are found in the

49、job environment.the growth or motivator factors that are intrinsic to the job are: achievement, recognition for achievement, the work itself, responsibility, and growth or advancement. the dissatisfaction-avoidance or hygiene (kita) factors that are extrinsic to the job include: company policy and a

50、dministration, supervision, interpersonal relationships, working conditions, salary, status, and security.a composite of the factors that are involved in causing job satisfaction and job dissatisfaction, drawn from samples of 1,685 employees, is shown in exhibit . the results indicate that motivator

51、s were the primary cause of satisfaction, and hygiene factors the primary cause of unhappiness on the job. the employees, studied in 12 different investigations, included lower level supervisors, professional woman, agricultural administrators, men about to retire from management positions, hospital

52、 maintenance personnel, manufacturing supervisors, nurses, food handlers, military officers, engineers, scientists, housekeepers, teachers, technicians, female assemblers, accountants, finnish foremen, and hungarian engineers.they were asked what job events had occurred in their work that had led to

53、 extreme satisfaction or extreme dissatisfaction on their part. their responses are broken down in the exhibit into percentages of total “positive” job events and of total “negative” job events. (the figures total more than 100% on doth the “hygiene” and “motivators” sides because often at least two

54、 factors can be attributed to a single event; advancement, for instance, often accompanies assumption of responsibility.)to illustrate, a typical response involving achievement that had a negative effect for the employee was, “i was unhappy because i didnt do the job successfully.” a typical respons

55、e in the small number of positive job event in the company policy and administration grouping was, “i was happy because the company reorganized the section so that i didnt report any longer to the guy i didnt get along with.”as the lower right-hand part of the exhibit shows, of all the factors contr

56、ibuting to job satisfaction, 81% were motivators. and of all the factors contributing to the employees dissatisfaction over their work, 69% involved hygiene。再一次:如何激励员工“我怎样才能让一个员工按我说的做呢?”这是在很多文章、书籍、演讲和作品上人们的恳切感叹。动机心理学是极其复杂的,并且真正能够阐明它的断言是很少的。但是这种超低概率的知识的推测并没有使市场上陆续上市的新型的蛇油热潮受到损害,其中有很多是通过学术测试的。毫无疑问这篇文章

57、不会对蛇油的市场需求受到任何负面影响,但是自从许多公司跟其他组织已经测试了关于它的理论,我相信它会帮助重新调整之前提到的低概率的不平衡性。 最快最直接最有效地让人去做一些事的方法是什么呢?询问?但是如果回答者说他或她不想去做,那就需要心理咨询去来揭示这种固执背后的原因。 说出原因?回答显示他或她不明白你说的话,现在交流方式这方面的专家将会帮您解决这个问题。可以给这个人货币刺激?我不用提醒读者建立和管理激励系统的复杂性和难度。教这个人?这意味着一个耗费多的培训项目。我们需要一个简单的方法。 每一个读者都能包容那个“直接行动”即经理的大声吼叫:“踹走这个人!”。并且认为这种类型的经理是对的。认为最

58、有效地最不客气的让人做事的方式就是怒骂或直接踹上去,去做可以被叫做“kita”的行为。有很多种kita的形式,下面是部分方式:消极身体的kita。这是一种不夸张的学术运用,并且经常在过去被使用。然而它有三个主要缺点:1.它是不雅的2.它违背了大多数组织珍惜的珍贵的仁慈形象3.因为它是一种身体攻击,会直接刺激自主神经系统,而这经常导致消极反馈-那个员工会反击。这些原因导致产生了消极的身体kita一些的禁忌。为发现心理脆弱性的无限根源和正确管理它的方式,心理学家们已经来拯救那些不被允许使用消极的身体kita。“他拿走了我的假发”;“我不知道她那样是想干嘛”;“老板老是盯着我”-这些自我核心的描述引

59、起摩擦刺痛是应用了以下方面的结果: 消极心理的kita。这个比消极身体kita有若干优势。首先,这种残忍是看不见的;这种流血是在内部的并且来得较晚。第二,因为它是用禁止的力量来影响高级脑皮质中心,减少了身体反冲的可能性。第三,因为一个人能承受的心理上的痛苦是无限的,kita发生的方向跟地点的可能性被升高了很多次。第四,实施打击的那个人能够在抽身在外,让系统完成这个肮脏的工作。第五,那些实施者获得了一些自我满足感(唯我独尊),然而他们是厌恶抽血的。最后,如果员工抱怨,他或她常会被控告是偏执狂的;没有明显的证据说明是真实的攻击。现在,消极kita会造成什么?如果我从背后踢你(心理的或身体的),谁会被激励?我会被激励;你离开!消极的kita不会导致激励,但会造成离职。积极的kita。让我们来考虑激励。如果我跟你说,“帮我或公司做这件事,然后我会给你奖励,一个鼓励刺激,更高地位,一次提升,所有存在的工业组织的金币奖励,”我是在激励你吗?我得
