It is difficult to evaluate IT capital requests. When asked to " list three instances over the last five years where IT investments have resulted in clear and unarguable returns to the organization" leaders may return blank stares. Failing to clearly link IT investments and organizational strategy. Asking the wrong question. Conducting the wrong analysis. Not stating Investment Goals. Not managing outcomes. Leaping to an inappropriate solution. Mangling the project management. Failing to learn from studies of IT effectiveness.

Motivation is a complex subject, but its understanding and application is central to the success of management and organizational success. Imagine that you have been tasked by the CEO of your organization (current or past) with recommending actions to improve the motivation of the organization’s employees. The CEO has requested that you prepare a talking paper explaining to management what motivation is, the factors that influence motivation, the role of the leader in motivation, and ways the organization can inspire motivation. The talking paper should not be a reiteration of motivation theory, but should provide succinct points that cover the key topics of motivation and provides a road map that management can implement to improve motivation within the organization. Note : You may create and / or make all necessary assumptions needed for the completion of this assignment. For an explanation of a talking paper and tips to create a successful one, read the article titled “How to Write a Talking Points Paper”, located at http://www.ehow.com/how_8113844_write-talking-points-paper.html . Also, review the document titled “ Talking Paper Instructions ”.

Berry, J. (2014). Revolutionising motivation. Training Journal , 10-13. ( Note : Available in the Strayer Library) Write a two to four (2-4) page talking paper in which you: Synthesize the concept of motivation, and examine the substantial reasons why motivation is difficult to understand. Evaluate the potential effectiveness of the model positioning of motivation, and propose at least one (1) action that the organization can take in order to apply the concept. Detail the feedback control loop, and suggest one (1) way that the organization can use the feedback control loop to determine whether management’s actions are motivating or demotivating. Assess the manner in which leaders can influence employee motivation through goal setting, impression management, and encouragement. Devise a plan to redesign a job of your choice within the organization, outlining the steps that the organization would need to take to redesign the job to encourage and develop motivation for employees. Select one (1) theory of motivation from pages 185 to 206 in the textbook. Outline a plan to integrate the selected theory into the organization. Recommend the key to success in implementing your plan of action to increase motivation within your chosen organization. Use at least three (3) quality academic references in this assignment.

Motivational Theories/Memory Acquisition Overview Write a 2-part assessment in which you apply motivational theory and memory acquisition theory to behaviors. This assessment should be a minimum of 4 pages long. By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria: Show More • Competency 1: Use information technology and tools to identify information in the domain of biological psychology. ▪ Describe potential changes from human design to consider if building a learning and memory system for a robot. • Competency 2: Employ critical and creative thinking to evaluate problems, conflicts, and unresolved issues in the study of biological psychology. ▪ Describe memory acquisition. • Competency 4: Assess the important theories, paradigms, research findings, and conclusions in biological psychology. ▪ Identify two common behaviors and hypothesize what might have prompted the behaviors from the perspective of each motivational theory. ▪ Discuss how people apply these different theories to influence behavior. • Competency 6: Communicate effectively in a variety of formats. ▪ Write coherently to support a central idea with correct grammar, usage, and mechanics as expected of a psychology professional. ▪ Use APA style and format. Context Motivational Theories Motivation refers to the set of factors that initiate, sustain, and direct behaviors. Several motivation theories, including instinct theory, drive theory, incentive theory, and arousal theory have been widely applied in psychological practice where they are linked to other theories. For example, recent attachment theory studies examined the circumstances surrounding motivation and behavior in adolescents. In medical practice, drive theory is combined with neuroendocrine theory to understand the relationship between homeostasis and hunger. Understanding the neurobiology of hunger and appetite may ultimately lead to treatments for obesity and eating disorders. Show More Emotion Emotion is an increase or decrease in physiological activity that is accompanied by feelings that are characteristic of the emotion and often accompanied by a characteristic behavior or facial expression. According to the James-Lange theory, emotional experience results from the physiological arousal that precedes it, and different emotions are the result of different patterns of arousal. According to Schachter and Singer's cognitive theory, physiological arousal contributes only to the emotion's intensity, while the identity of the emotion is based on the cognitive assessment of the situation. Memory Acquisition Anterograde amnesia refers to impairment in forming new memories, while retrograde amnesia is the inability to remember events prior to impairment. Anterograde and retrograde amnesia are common learning and memory disorders. They have been linked to damage in certain brai.

Motivation at New United Motor Manufacturing, Inc (NUMMI) By Gary Convis Origins of NUMMI. The Fremont plant of General Motors opened in 1965, and after experiencing nearly decades of labour-management conflict, closed in 1982. At the time of its closing, over 6000 workers lost their jobs and nearly an equal number of grievances remained unresolved. Soon after the closing, two forces set in motion events that would lead to a reopening of the plant with very different management philosophies and practices. GM needed to build a compact car for its product line to compete with the popularity of smaller imports, and management wanted to study the production methods of Japanese auto makers. Toyota needed to manufacture automobiles closer to its major offshore markets and wondered how well its highly efficient Toyota Production System would transfer to American workers and suppliers. What emerged from these two independent management motives was an agreement to form a 50/50 joint venture to build both GM and Toyota vehicles in the Fremont plants. A separate corporate entity was formed, New United Manufacturing, Inc (NUMMI – pronounce “new me”), and the plant was reopened in 1984 with a decidedly different approach to management. The UAW Labor Contract. For starters, the new management team negotiated with the United Auto Workers (UAW) union a unique contract. While former plant employees would be given first chance at the new jobs, former seniority rights were abandoned. Management focused on a new ideology that targeted building the highest quality vehicles at the lowest possible costs. Workers would be involved in deciding work standards, job allocations and layout, training, job rotation, and other work elements. The dozens of former specialised job classifications were abandoned. Only two classifications are used at NUMMI for hourly workers – skilled trade and nonskilled. Within each classification workers are piad the same hourly rate with only a modest difference between the two classifications. A small 60 cents per hour premium is paid to team leaders who guide the planning and work of four to five people. Even professional people recruited to the firm, such as engineers, occupy their first several weeks on the job working on the line. This helps inculcate in them an appreciation for the tedious and stressful pressures workers face on the line. A no-strike, no-layoff agreement was part of the contract, a form of job security. Gary Convius, NUMMI’s senior vice president until he was promoted to head up North American operations in 2000, believes the contract provision “buys the hearts of people.” Flexibility prevails instead of the confrontational enforcement of rules. Management Philosophy and System. When Convis was recruited into his original position as general manager of the plant, he was advised by a Toyota executive, “Manage as if you had no power.” The advice was to forget the command-and-control legacy of Detroit and strive i.
