Teamwork and Motivation

February 27, 2015

Imagining that I am the owner of a small manufacturing company which manufactures a commodity, widgets. Further, my widget is a clone of a nationally known widget. My company’s widget, WooWoo, is less expensive and more readily available than the nationally known brand. Presently, the sales are high; however, there were many defects, which increased costs and delays delivery. However this problem has obviously been remedied for a number of reasons. We identified some key issues which include the following: employee working conditions, motivation of a minimum wage worker,

Par 2: First required element: We have decided to increase job satisfaction, and created an organizational motivational plan which has had a number of benefits. Such benefits include increasing job satisfaction, productivity, a higher quality of work and greater retention. I wil personally commandeer this incentive by using the three techniques.

1. I will endeavour to....
2. Then, it is essential that I....
3. Next, and most importantly, I will....

Par 3: The reason I feel that my plan is successful is because I rely upon the motivational theory that.....

(Explain the theory [in one or two sentences], tell which points apply and which don’t. Then tell why it is legit in your circumstance. IMPORTANT: make sure it matches your action plan. One sentence for each...)

1. Technique 1
2. Technique 2
3. Technique 3

Par 4: Based on this theoretical structure, I plan to motivate my workers in the following three ways:

1. Clearly, there needs to be some form of communication between those who are on the front line and those who are perceived as empowered..... (Explain how this fits your theory here. One sentence)
2.  I plan to create a culture of community amongst my workers so that they feel they are meaningful and have a voice..... (Ibid.)
3. There needs to be an element of continuing education so that my workers are able to garner opportunities for advancement and thereby provided an incentive to further his or her career..... (shit Kiesh...this one is your problem lol)

Par 5: We have taken these steps because it was essential that we consider how communication, attitudes, behaviors, and culture affect team performance.

1. (how does point one address communication?)
2. (how does point 2 above address attitudes and behaviours?)
3. (Ibid. team performance?)

Par 6: In closure, I feel that we were successful for the stated reasons which revolve around the theoretical structure..... [blank] .... we chose to address the aforementioned but resolved issue. The team we selected was arguably successful and selected based on their individual qualities that adhered to the premises of....... Due to the availability of technology were fortunate to only be required to meet on..... but were attached continually if a problem arose.
