This document discusses different approaches to work design: engineering, motivational, and socio-technical. The engineering approach uses traditional jobs and groups with high routinization and low autonomy. The motivational approach focuses on enriched jobs with high variety, autonomy, and feedback. The socio-technical approach uses self-managing teams that have control over tasks and are multi-skilled and flexible. It also outlines factors to consider like technical interdependence and personal needs to design work that optimizes technology and personal satisfaction.
