Topic 2:
Expectancy theory suggests that motivation depends on individuals’ expectations about their ability to perform tasks and receive desired rewards. Expectancy theory is associated with the work of Victor Vroom, although a number of other scholars have also made contributions in this area.
Expectancy theory is concerned not with identifying types of needs, but rather with the thinking process that individuals use to achieve rewards.
E → P expectancy involves determining whether putting effort into a task will lead to high performance. For this expectancy to be high, the individual must have the ability, previous experience, and necessary equipment, tools, and opportunity to perform
P → O expectancy involves determining whether successful performance will lead to the desired outcome or reward. If the P → O expectancy is high, the individual will be more highly motivated. In contrast, if the expectancy is that high performance will not produce the desired outcome, motivation will be lower.
Valence is the value of outcomes, or attraction to outcomes, for the individual. If the outcomes that are available from great effort and good performance are not valued by employees, motivation will be low.
