This document provides an overview of theories of motivation from an organizational behavior textbook. It includes:
1) Early theories like Maslow's hierarchy of needs, McGregor's Theory X and Y, and Herzberg's two-factor theory.
2) Contemporary theories including McClelland's three needs theory, goal-setting theory, reinforcement theory, and the job characteristics model.
3) Additional topics of motivation covered are equity theory, expectancy theory, and current issues managers face in motivating employees.
Motivating employees involves both financial and non-financial methods. Financial methods include wages, salaries, bonuses, profit sharing, and performance-related pay. Non-financial methods include praise, promotion, job enrichment, empowerment, and teamwork. Various theories provide perspectives on motivation, such as Maslow's hierarchy of needs and Herzberg's two-factor theory, which emphasize the importance of both financial and non-financial factors. The most effective management style depends on the situation and type of employees.
Attrition refers to the rate at which employees leave an organization. It can be caused by various factors like higher pay elsewhere, lack of growth opportunities, stress, etc. High attrition is costly for organizations as it requires recruiting, training and lost productivity. Calculating attrition rate and costs helps understand why employees leave and the financial impact. Managing attrition properly benefits organizations by reducing expenses, retaining knowledge and improving employee morale.
The document discusses predicting employee attrition at a company. It begins with defining attrition and why companies should care about it due to replacement costs. The objectives are outlined as predicting drivers of attrition, potential attrition cases, and identifying weak areas to improve satisfaction and retention. Data on employees is described including demographics, job factors, and a target variable of attrition. Models are analyzed and decision trees show significant predictors as overtime, stock options, income, marital status, and work-life balance. Visualizations further illustrate relationships between these predictors and attrition rates.
The document discusses different types of pay-for-performance plans including shop-floor incentives, sales force incentives, executive pay, and team-based pay. It outlines the importance of designing pay plans that support corporate objectives, are fair and equitable, and comply with laws. Different types of team-based pay plans like profit-sharing, gain-sharing, and employee stock ownership plans are described as ways to incentivize and reward employee performance.

This document discusses job satisfaction and dissatisfaction. It defines job satisfaction as having a positive attitude towards one's job, while dissatisfaction is a negative attitude. It measures job satisfaction based on the nature of work, supervision, pay, promotion opportunities, and coworker relations. Common causes of dissatisfaction are low salaries, lack of promotions, unfair rewards, age, education level, supervision, work groups, and working conditions. The document also discusses specific causes of demotivation for employees in the BPO sector, such as odd working hours, lack of work-life balance, lack of appreciation, too much work, and health issues. Ways for employees to express dissatisfaction include voicing concerns, remaining loyal, neglecting work
Performance appraisals involve establishing standards, measuring employee performance against those standards, providing feedback, and taking corrective actions. There are traditional methods like essay, ranking, and checklists as well as modern methods like 360-degree feedback and management by objectives. An effective performance appraisal process includes setting goals, evaluating performance, discussing evaluations, and identifying areas for improvement.

Pay for performance and financial incentivesnadeemshafi111
Pay for performance and financial incentives can motivate employees but must be carefully designed. Frederick Taylor first suggested using financial incentives to reward employees. Incentive plans include individual plans like piecework and merit pay as well as team and organization-wide plans. Effective incentive plans must link pay to meaningful performance measures, consider individual motivations, and provide feedback. Both financial and non-financial rewards can be used, but incentives may demotivate intrinsic motivation if not properly implemented. Managers must understand motivational theories and design plans carefully to maximize employee motivation and performance.
The document discusses performance appraisal in the IT industry. It examines popular appraisal methodologies like 360 degree feedback and bell curve systems. Over the past 5 years, average IT salaries have increased 10% annually. Future salary growth over the next 3 years is expected to be 6-9% overall, with higher compensation for skills in emerging technologies. There is a linkage between appraisal systems and attrition rates, as unfair appraisals can increase dissatisfaction and attrition. The document recommends considering potential in addition to performance, focusing on team performance, and providing regular coaching and feedback to improve engagement.

Cash or short-term incentive plans (STIP) engage employees in the process of achieving business objectives, reward desired behaviors, and help execute the organization’s long-term strategy. Incentive plans, when properly aligned to business outcomes and rolled-out effectively, can be a powerful tool that enable organizations to “do more with less” and achieve a greater return on investment (ROI) in cash compensation programs.
This document discusses performance appraisal and provides details about:
1. It defines performance appraisal as a systematic evaluation of employees by supervisors and discusses why appraisals are conducted.
2. It describes different methods of performance appraisal used in companies like behaviorally anchored rating scales, human resource accounting, management by objectives, 360 degree feedback, and the rating scale method used by BMW.
3. It provides an overview of BMW, including that it is a German automaker known for luxury vehicles and motorcycles, and discusses BMW's operations in India including its assembly plant in Chennai.
This document provides an overview of management functions like planning, organizing, staffing and controlling as they relate to the RMG (ready-made garments) industry in Bangladesh, using Shanta Denims Limited as a case study. It discusses the theoretical background and definitions of key terms, outlines the objectives and steps involved in each management function, and provides examples of techniques used for controlling like budgetary control and standard costing. The RMG industry is a major export industry for Bangladesh, growing over 15% annually and accounting for around 75% of export earnings, demonstrating the importance of effective management strategies.
The document discusses performance reviews and feedback in the workplace. It argues that the traditional annual performance review process is ineffective and outdated. Instead, it advocates for adopting regular, ongoing feedback throughout the year using next-generation performance management tools. These tools allow for immediate feedback, aligned goal setting, and customized development approaches tailored to each company's specific needs and culture. The document concludes that shareholders will demand a management structure with regular performance evaluations, and next-generation tools provide a more effective way to do so compared to traditional annual reviews alone.
Planning involves defining goals, strategies, and plans to coordinate organizational work. It reduces contradictions and waste. Formal, written plans with long-term focus tend to result in higher performance than informal plans. Elements of planning include goals, plans to meet goals by allocating resources and schedules. Types of plans include strategic plans for the whole organization and operational plans specifying how to achieve goals. Goal setting is the first planning step and can be done through traditional top-down or participative MBO approaches. Forecasting and contingency planning are also part of the planning process.
How organizations have changed their performance reviewsGroSum
Ten major organizations have overhauled their performance review processes by moving from annual reviews to more continuous feedback systems. Companies like Adobe, Accenture, Deloitte, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, GE, Wipro, Infosys, TCS, and SAP have all abandoned traditional annual reviews and forced rankings in favor of quarterly or more frequent feedback conversations between managers and employees to improve engagement, development, and performance. The new systems aim to make feedback more immediate and useful for employees through tools for instant feedback, check-ins, dashboards, and crowdsourced feedback from colleagues.
The document discusses turnover and retention, outlining the difference between wanted and unwanted turnover. It provides a model of the various factors that impact turnover, including economic trends, industry trends, organizational characteristics, leadership and culture, skills development, rewards and recognition, job characteristics, and individual characteristics. Finally, it recommends six key areas to reduce unwanted turnover: early interventions, skill interventions, leadership interventions, rewards/recognition interventions, selection interventions, and job enrichment.

Final Presentation NotesSlide 1(2-5 minutes)KTI lost revenue.docxAKHIL969626
Final Presentation Notes
Slide 1(2-5 minutes)
KTI lost revenue and market share over the past 3 years. Sales of tape storage units are down 35%. KTI believes it needs to reduce human capital by 25% per year while maintaining the current level of production. Jan Ricter, Vice President of Human Resources for Keller Technology Inc. and the Consulting Group are key players. Jan has asked our consulting group to determine the right mix of human capital reduction and RIF strategies for KTI. Our job as consultants is to recommend a downsizing mix that Jan can use to execute the RIF.
5 elements of an effective proposal?
Goals of Proposed Effort- The goal is to make sure the Human Capital Reduction effort process goes smoothly. We need to determine the right mix of human capital reduction strategies. We also need to develop a plan to offset the negative effects caused by the reduction.
Recommended Action Plan- We need to collect preliminary data to determine what is causing the symptoms listed above. (Company records/interview key members)
Specifications of Responsibilities
Strategy for Achieving the Desired State
Fees, terms, and conditions
Mutual expectations are the outcomes of the services that the OD is going to provide to the organization stated by the client. The client further states what to expect from consultant and processes used to pursue the goals of the proposal. Encouraging clients to state what they expect in form of personal accomplishments, working relationships and outcomes facilitates the development an ideal contract.
In any project, there are various client issues which must be handled with care for the goals of the project to be achieved. One of the client issues is usually the fear of losing control of the organization to OD practitioners. The other issue is the client being exposed and vulnerable as he has allowed OD practitioners to have access to organization’s confidential information. Therefore, these issues need to be sorted before the OD practitioner can begin working on the project.
Slide 2
The presented problem is a symptom. Something is causing KTI to lose revenue. Something is causing sales of tape storage to be down.
Slide 3
Job performance is work-related activities that are expected of an employee and how well the employee performs those activities. Job performance can be measured by looking at quality and quantity of work. Each department measures performance differently. Job performance can be evaluated weekly, monthly, quarterly, or annually; depending on the work setting. Performance can be evaluated by using performance appraisals. A performance appraisal is a human resource system designed to provide feedback to an individual or group about its performance and its developmental opportunities. The performance appraisal process can be linked to a reward system. There is also a process called performance management that involves goal setting, performance appraisal, and reward systems th ...
The document discusses conducting stay interviews with top employees ("A-People") to understand an organization's implicit employee value proposition and culture. Key findings from interviews at one unit found the value proposition centered around an international, challenging and stimulating work environment that facilitates continuous learning, trust/collaboration, and work-life balance. This "young, dynamic" culture was seen as attractive due to opportunities for experience and learning. However, the same factors could demotivate others. Aligning culture and hiring is important for engagement. Managing culture changes during strategic shifts also impacts engagement and requires balancing turnover versus cultural adaptation.
Employee engagement strategies and practicesadigaskell
This document discusses strategies for improving employee engagement. It begins by providing background on the Institute for Corporate Productivity (i4cp) and its research focusing on identifying best practices of high-performing organizations. The executive summary then outlines key strategies used by high-performing organizations to increase engagement, including aligning culture, strategy, and performance; promoting a culture where employees understand goals and feel empowered; measuring the impact of engagement on business results; and including engagement in manager performance reviews. The document provides examples from companies like 3M and Rio Tinto that have successfully implemented these engagement strategies.
This document discusses key concepts related to budgeting including:
1. Budgets translate organizational goals and strategies into operational terms and are used for planning and control by setting standards and comparing actual performance.
2. Master budgets combine all individual area and activity budgets, while operating budgets concern income generation and financial budgets concern cash flows and capital expenditures.
3. Flexible budgets are superior to static budgets for performance reporting because they allow comparison of actual costs to budgeted costs at the actual level of activity.

This document discusses developing an effective employee engagement strategy. It outlines that an engagement strategy should be created before conducting an engagement survey and should detail how the strategy will be communicated, how action areas will be identified from survey results, what measurable outcomes will be used to evaluate progress, what specific actions will address survey findings, and how the strategy will be sustained over time. Identifying drivers of engagement that can be realistically addressed given available resources is important for focusing improvement efforts.
Most of the small, emerging (SME's) organization 's CEO or Business heads have a challenge on "PEOPLE MANAGEMENT."
When the business head does not plan and execute the people management process effectively, the organization suffers from slipping deliveries, quality issues, increase in human resources cost, IR related problems and eventually all those failures affecting the business profitability and growth.
The solutions call for a holistic approach to all aspects of the people management process, and this presentation attempts to give some perspectives from my experience with SME's in different regions.
Recently I shared this presentation in one of the SME 's CEO forum and received a lot of interaction and appreciation.

End-to-end pipeline agility - Berlin Buzzwords 2024Lars Albertsson
We describe how we achieve high change agility in data engineering by eliminating the fear of breaking downstream data pipelines through end-to-end pipeline testing, and by using schema metaprogramming to safely eliminate boilerplate involved in changes that affect whole pipelines.
A quick poll on agility in changing pipelines from end to end indicated a huge span in capabilities. For the question "How long time does it take for all downstream pipelines to be adapted to an upstream change," the median response was 6 months, but some respondents could do it in less than a day. When quantitative data engineering differences between the best and worst are measured, the span is often 100x-1000x, sometimes even more.
A long time ago, we suffered at Spotify from fear of changing pipelines due to not knowing what the impact might be downstream. We made plans for a technical solution to test pipelines end-to-end to mitigate that fear, but the effort failed for cultural reasons. We eventually solved this challenge, but in a different context. In this presentation we will describe how we test full pipelines effectively by manipulating workflow orchestration, which enables us to make changes in pipelines without fear of breaking downstream.
Making schema changes that affect many jobs also involves a lot of toil and boilerplate. Using schema-on-read mitigates some of it, but has drawbacks since it makes it more difficult to detect errors early. We will describe how we have rejected this tradeoff by applying schema metaprogramming, eliminating boilerplate but keeping the protection of static typing, thereby further improving agility to quickly modify data pipelines without fear.
Global Situational Awareness of A.I. and where its headedvikram sood
You can see the future first in San Francisco.
Over the past year, the talk of the town has shifted from $10 billion compute clusters to $100 billion clusters to trillion-dollar clusters. Every six months another zero is added to the boardroom plans. Behind the scenes, there’s a fierce scramble to secure every power contract still available for the rest of the decade, every voltage transformer that can possibly be procured. American big business is gearing up to pour trillions of dollars into a long-unseen mobilization of American industrial might. By the end of the decade, American electricity production will have grown tens of percent; from the shale fields of Pennsylvania to the solar farms of Nevada, hundreds of millions of GPUs will hum.
The AGI race has begun. We are building machines that can think and reason. By 2025/26, these machines will outpace college graduates. By the end of the decade, they will be smarter than you or I; we will have superintelligence, in the true sense of the word. Along the way, national security forces not seen in half a century will be un-leashed, and before long, The Project will be on. If we’re lucky, we’ll be in an all-out race with the CCP; if we’re unlucky, an all-out war.
Everyone is now talking about AI, but few have the faintest glimmer of what is about to hit them. Nvidia analysts still think 2024 might be close to the peak. Mainstream pundits are stuck on the wilful blindness of “it’s just predicting the next word”. They see only hype and business-as-usual; at most they entertain another internet-scale technological change.
Before long, the world will wake up. But right now, there are perhaps a few hundred people, most of them in San Francisco and the AI labs, that have situational awareness. Through whatever peculiar forces of fate, I have found myself amongst them. A few years ago, these people were derided as crazy—but they trusted the trendlines, which allowed them to correctly predict the AI advances of the past few years. Whether these people are also right about the next few years remains to be seen. But these are very smart people—the smartest people I have ever met—and they are the ones building this technology. Perhaps they will be an odd footnote in history, or perhaps they will go down in history like Szilard and Oppenheimer and Teller. If they are seeing the future even close to correctly, we are in for a wild ride.
Let me tell you what we see.
Open Source Contributions to Postgres: The Basics POSETTE 2024ElizabethGarrettChri
Postgres is the most advanced open-source database in the world and it's supported by a community, not a single company. So how does this work? How does code actually get into Postgres? I recently had a patch submitted and committed and I want to share what I learned in that process. I’ll give you an overview of Postgres versions and how the underlying project codebase functions. I’ll also show you the process for submitting a patch and getting that tested and committed.

ViewShift: Hassle-free Dynamic Policy Enforcement for Every Data LakeWalaa Eldin Moustafa
Dynamic policy enforcement is becoming an increasingly important topic in today’s world where data privacy and compliance is a top priority for companies, individuals, and regulators alike. In these slides, we discuss how LinkedIn implements a powerful dynamic policy enforcement engine, called ViewShift, and integrates it within its data lake. We show the query engine architecture and how catalog implementations can automatically route table resolutions to compliance-enforcing SQL views. Such views have a set of very interesting properties: (1) They are auto-generated from declarative data annotations. (2) They respect user-level consent and preferences (3) They are context-aware, encoding a different set of transformations for different use cases (4) They are portable; while the SQL logic is only implemented in one SQL dialect, it is accessible in all engines.

2. Thorough understanding of the attrition
trends.
To identify patterns and potential
factors that contribute to attrition.
Potential implications and strategies for
addressing attrition.
Building dashboard - will elevate simple
metrics, by linking them to one another
and visualizing them as a whole.
Objective
3. • OBSERVATION:
A consistent attrition rate across almost all departments.
This can be seen as a positive aspect, as it indicates that the
organization is maintaining a certain level of employee satisfaction
and engagement across the board.
Room for improvement in Research & Development and Software
department.
• IMPACT:
Extended work hours over a prolonged period can contribute to
burnout and reduced job satisfaction, potentially influencing attrition
rates.
KPI 1 – Average Attrition Rate for all Departments
• RECOMMENDATIONS:
Evaluate project timelines and resource allocation.
Fix abnormally high overtime hours by hiring and
training new workers.
4. Observation:
• Average hourly rate for all depart is almost similar.
• For male research scientist is 114.45
• Sales representative have lowest hourly rate.
• Male have lowest hourly rate compare to women.
• Less the hourly rate high the attrition rate.
Conclusion:
• If we want to decrease the attrition rete we hove to
improve Hourly rate for all department.
• In each department if the attrition rate is high and hourly
rate is also high then improve the others aspects.
KPI 2 – Average Hourly Rate of Male Research Scientist
5. Observations:
• Attrition rates show minor variations around 50% across
monthly income bins, suggesting balanced turnover, with
consistent patterns but no clear linear correlation, visually
depicted in the chart.
Trends & Fluctuations:
• Attrition rates exhibit fluctuating but generally stable trends
across income bins without a consistent upward or downward
pattern
Possible Reasons:
• Possible reasons for attrition include job dissatisfaction (roles,
culture, growth), market demand enticing better offers, and
potential salary concerns (though not clearly indicated by data
alone).
Potential Changes:
Recommended actions involve salary analysis for competitiveness, exit interviews
to uncover reasons, and implementing retention programs like career development
and mentorship.
KPI 3 – Attrition Rate vs Monthly Income
6. Due to rapid growth in salary and rapidly evolving
technology younger generation prefer to spend
more years in software.
R &D employees spend lesser years as very less
people develop ability to research and develop
new technologies
Working in Sales employees receive additional
commissions for their hard work. Their job
involves interacting with their clients.
KPI 4 – Average Working Years for Each Department
These differences in working years are also found due to
industry trends, company practices, and geographic location.
7. KPI 5 – Job Role vs Work Life Balance
.
.
As per our observation, the work life balance of all
department is approximately same except some
departments.
In conclusion, the pursuit of a balanced life is not a
compromise but a strategic investment. It's a recognition
that personal growth, relationships, and rejuvenation are
foundational to excelling in any job role.
8. KPI 6 - Attrition Rate vs Years Since Last Promotion
Attrition Variation: The attrition rates vary within a relatively
narrow range, from around 49.18% to 62.50%. This suggests
that the overall attrition rate is not drastically changing with the
years since the last promotion.
Inconsistent Trend: At first glance, there isn't a clear linear or
consistent trend in attrition rate as years since last promotion
increase.
Other Factors: It might be worth considering other factors that
could influence attrition, such as job role, department , Monthly
Income , Work Life Balance , and overall job market conditions.
Conclusion : Even though there is no clear relation between attrition and years since last
promotion and there may be other factors that could be influencing attrition , like I
mentioned above . We can conclude that employees getting promoted early are not
leaving the company , so company should promote employees within 10 year period to
avoid employees leaving the company.
