Your grade will be based on your response to the question posed by the<\/span>
instructor. Acceptable responses will provide a specific answer to the question posed that uses<\/span>
the course material, from the corresponding chapter(s), to respond in a way that demonstrates<\/span>
your mastery of the material covered. An acceptable example is provided below:<\/span>
A job design must incorporate elements that will motivate employees to perform well on the<\/span>
job and ultimately produce inputs effectively and efficiently.<\/span> <\/span>One major difference between<\/span>
scientific management and the job characteristics model (JCM) is that the former’s key goal is<\/span>
to maximize performance through money. Conversely, JCM is more focused on increasing<\/span>
performance through intrinsic motivation (George & Jones, 2012). When employees are<\/span>
intrinsically motivated, they contribute inputs to their jobs because they enjoy the work<\/span>
itself.<\/span> <\/span>Scientific management restricts skill variety, while JCM advocates it. Scientific<\/span>
management also breaks up work into small tasks for employees to perform. JCM encourages<\/span>
employees to take the work as a whole and complete it. Scientific management can become<\/span>
repetitive and boring, which may lead to a lack of motivation to perform a job. JCM challenges<\/span>
employees and gives them autonomy to decide how their work should be handled.<\/span>
Similar to JCM, job enlargement and enrichment focus on promoting intrinsic motivation.<\/span> <\/span>Job<\/span>
enlargement increases the number of tasks an employee performs, while enrichment allows<\/span>
employees to gain more control over their work. JCM goes a step further by providing different<\/span>
elements such as skills variety, task identity, task significance, autonomy, and feedback that<\/span>
affects intrinsic motivation. JCM uses these intangible items to make individuals feel<\/span>
good about the work they do. For example, feedback can have a positive impact on intrinsic<\/span>
motivation. When a customer praises a waiter for providing great service.<\/span>
