Motivational Strategies - Milestone
Context: You have covered a lot of materials, including innovation, change, diversity, and motivating employees. You've applied these concepts to your chosen company in the discussion and in this discussion, looking at the changes occurring in your company and at how your company rewards their employees. In this milestone you'll build on your discussion prompt research and dive even further into employee motivation concepts.
First, be sure you have read Chapters 7 through 10 in the text.
Next, please watch the following video clips from the lab:
Chapter 08: Concept Clip: Performance Evaluations/Appraisals
Chapter 09: Concept Clip: Big Five Personality Factors
Chapter 09: Concept Clip: Perceptions
Requirements: Review the research you and your classmates did in the discussion relevant to change and in discussion relevant to motivating employees. Look for patterns and connecting concepts. For example, during a period of change, what was most motivating for employees? Then review the Chapter 8 and 9 videos on performance evaluations, personality factors, and perceptions. Finally, construct a plan that you feel would most effectively motivate the human capital in the company you have been researching for your final project.
Your third milestone submission should address the following requirements:
1. Explain whether you will or will not implement a formal performance evaluation process and defend why or why not.
2. Describe reward system you will use to motivate your employees, in detail, and why you have included each element (base pay, commission, bonus, stocks, benefits, holiday, vacation, etc. (the list is endless, so be creative!).
3. Describe your approach to rolling out and managing the change process required to transition from the current reward system to your new system.
a. What strategies will you use to manage the change?
b. Will you be transparent in your communication or does some compensation information remain confidential?
c. What are the most likely roadblock or resistance to change and how will you plan proactively for success?
