Editor's Notes

  1. BF Skinner was an american psychologist that introduced a theory called radical behaviorism that examined the relationship between motiviation and reinforcement. Radical behaviorism seeks to understand behavior as a function of environmental histories of reinforcing consequences programmed learning,  educational technique characterized by self-paced, self-administered instruction presented in logical sequence and with much repetition of concepts…….THE KEY IS REINFORCEMENT. THE PROPER REINFORCEMENT CAN HIGHLY MOTIVATE EMPLOYEES.
  2. THE BIGGEST IS LACK OF RECOGNITION which we will touch on again in just a bit. REWARDS ARE NOT WHAY EMPLOYEES NEED. Example: if you give someone a gift certificate to an ice cream parlor and they are lactose intolerant. This is a Very basic example.
