Goals of HRD
• Goal of Human Resources Development interventions is to assist employees and organizations in attaining their goals
• Ultimate objective of most, if not all, HRD programs is to improve organizational performance
• Major focus of most HRD interventions is an effort to change employee behavior

Major Categories Affecting Behavior
• External forces– Outside the organization– Inside the work environment
• Leadership• Coworkers• Outcomes of performance
• Internal Forces– Within employee
• Motivation• KSAs
![Page 6: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 6
Major Categories of Employee Behavior
• Individual performance is multidimensional• Most HRD focuses on “Task Performance”
– Behaviors central to doing one’s job
• Organizational citizenship behaviors– Critical to organizational effectiveness
• Not specific to any one task
![Page 7: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 7
External Influences
• General state of economy• Government intrusion• Global and technology issues
– In spite of excellent work and production, external influences can result in down-sizing to reduce costs
![Page 8: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 8
Workforce Investment
• Organizations invest a lot of time and money in their workforce
• They must maintain their investment, even when restructuring or downsizing
• Re-training “survivors” to do other work rather than laying them off– Coaching and mentoring– Individual development– Multi-rater feedback
![Page 9: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Influences on Employee Behavior
• Factor– Outcomes– Supervision
– Organization
– Coworkers
(Table 2-1)
• Issues– Types– Effect on motivation– Leadership– Performance expectations– Reward structure– Organizational structure– Job design– Control of outcomes– Norms– Group Dynamics– Teamwork/Trust/Cohesiveness

CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 10
Employee Perceptions Drive Behavior
– Expectancy Theory:• Workers will perform behaviors that they perceive
will bring valued outcomes• Better the outcome, better the work
– Equity Theory• Outcomes are evaluated by comparing them to the
outcomes received by others
![Page 11: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 11
Supervision and Leadership
• Immediate supervisor:– Delegates tasks and responsibilities– Sets expectations– Evaluates performance– Provides feedback– Rewards desirable behavior– Provides discipline
![Page 12: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 12
Supervisory Influences
• Self-fulfilling prophecy– Supervisor's expectations can influence
workers behavior
• Leadership:– Non-coercive influence to direct and
coordinate the activities of a group toward accomplishing a goal
![Page 13: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 13
Rewards Structure
• Focuses on:– Types of rewards used– How rewards are distributed– The criteria for rewards distribution
• Rewards are more than money or plaques– They can include recognition and acceptance
![Page 14: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 14
The Organizational Culture
• A set of values, beliefs, norms and patterns of behavior that are shared by organization members, and that guide their behavior
![Page 15: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 15
Job Design
• The development and alteration of the components of a job to improve productivity and the quality of an a employee’s life
• A job design can affect behavior and attitudes
• Altering the job may improve performance and attitudes
![Page 16: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 16
Influence of Coworkers
• They control some of the outcomes and therefore some of the behavior
• They may offer or withhold friendship and recognition
• Norms set the guidelines for behavior in the group
• Group dynamics influence the way an employee behaves when interacting with a group
![Page 17: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 17
Group Dynamic Characteristics
• Groupthink -- concerned with unanimity rather than making good decisions
• Social Loafing -- tendency for individuals to reduce level of effort as group becomes larger
• Teamwork: – Trust– Cohesiveness
![Page 18: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 18
Motivation
• One of the basic elements of human behavior
• Factors that cause the arousal, direction and persistence of voluntary actions that are goal directed
![Page 19: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 19
Factors to Consider
• Work motivation pertains to voluntary behavior
• Motivation focuses on– Energizing—The generation or mobilization of
effort– Direction—Applying effort to one behavior
over another– Persistence—Continuing (or ceasing) to
perform a behavior
![Page 20: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 20
Worker Motivation
• Based on the individual because of unique– Needs– Desires– Attitudes– Goals
![Page 21: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 21
The Need-Based Approach
• Underlying needs, such as the needs for safety or power, drive motivation
• Theories include:– Mazlow’s Needs
Hierarchy– Alderfer’s Existence,
Relatedness and Growth Theory
– Herzberg’s Two-Factor Theory
![Page 22: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 22
Cognitive Process Approach
• Motivation is a process controlled by conscious thoughts, beliefs and judgments
• Theories include:• Expectancy Theory• Goal-Setting Theory• Social Learning
Theory• Equity Theory
![Page 23: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 23
Non-Cognitive Approach
• Motivation is explained as an interaction between behavior and external events without appealing to internal thoughts or needs
• Theories include:– Reinforcement Theory
![Page 24: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 24
Needs-Based Approach
• Needs: deficiency states or imbalances, whether physiological or psychological, that energize and direct behavior
• Needs drive behavior through need activation and need satisfaction
![Page 25: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

The Need Activation-Need Satisfaction Process
Process Example
Need is activated
Tension is created
Yes
No
Layoff announced;Need for securityis activated
Tension expressed infear and worry
Improve performance?Politics?Job search?
Search for waysto reduce tension
Performance improvementleads management toremove employee'sname from layoff list
Perform behaviorsto reduce tension
Fear and worrysignificantly reduced
Tension eliminatedor significantlyreduced?
Need for securitysatisfied
Need satisfied;Need no longerdrives behavior

CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 26
Mazlow’s Need Hierarchy
• In Reverse Order of Importance– Self-actualization– Status and Esteem– Love– Safety and security– Physiological
• The item(s) below must be satisfied before those above can be satisfied
![Page 27: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 27
Alderfer’s ERG Theory
• Existence
• Relatedness
• Growth
• Basically reduces Mazlow’s five to three items
![Page 28: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 28
Deficiencies of Need-Based
• Difficult to test and apply
• Insufficient for explanation of motivation
• Some programs based on theories have been successful– Job enrichment– Achievement motivation
![Page 29: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 29
Cognitive Process Theories
• Expectancy theory– Assumes that motivation is a conscious
choice process– Employees
• believe they can perform successfully (high expectancy), and
• believe are connected (high instrumentality) to outcomes they desire (high valence) or
• believe will prevent (negative instrumentality) outcomes they want to avoid (negative valence)
![Page 30: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 30
Expectancy Theory and HRD
• Employees will not attend HRD sessions unless– They will learn something– It will increase their job performance– They will be rewarded for their efforts
![Page 31: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 32
Goal Setting Theory
• Goals can – Mobilize employee effort– Direct their attention– Increase their persistence– Affect strategies used to accomplish a task
![Page 33: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 33
Goal Setting
• Goals that are specific, difficult, and accepted by employees lead to better performance
• Feedback enhances effectiveness of goal setting
• Goals must be achievable
![Page 34: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 34
Social Learning Theory
• Outcome and self-efficacy expectations affect individual performance
• An Outcome Expectation– person’s belief that performing a given
behavior will lead to a given outcome
• Self Efficacy– “people’s judgments of their capabilities to
organize and execute courses of action required to attain designated types of performances”
![Page 35: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 36
Major Prediction of Social Learning Theory
• A person’s self-efficacy expectations will determine
• whether a behavior will be performed,• how much effort will be spent, and• how long the person will continue to perform the behavior
![Page 37: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 37
Equity Theory
• Motivation is strongly influenced by – People’s desire to be treated fairly– Perceptions about whether they have been
treated fairly
![Page 38: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 38
Basis of Equity Theory
• People develop beliefs about what is fair for them to receive in exchange for the contributions that they make to the organization
• People determine fairness by comparing their relevant returns and contributions to those of others
• People who believe they have been treated unfairly (called inequity) will experience tension, and they will be motivated to find ways to reduce it
![Page 39: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 39
Reducing Feelings of Inequity
• Cognitively distorting views of contributions or rewards (“She must be smarter than I thought.”)
• Influencing the perceived rival to change his or her contributions or rewards (e.g., convincing the person to be less productive)
• Changing one’s own contributions or rewards (either working harder or contributing less)
• Comparing oneself to a different person leaving the situation (requesting a transfer or quitting)
![Page 40: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)

Reinforcement Theory
• A non-cognitive theory• Based on “Law of Effect”
– Behavior that is followed by a pleasurable consequence will occur more frequently
• Process known as “reinforcement”
– Behavior that is followed by an adverse consequence will occur less frequently
![Page 42: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
CH-2 Copyright 2008, Werner et al 42
Behavior Modification
• Positive reinforcement refers to increasing the frequency of a behavior by following the behavior with a pleasurable consequence
• Negative reinforcement increases the frequency of a behavior by removing something aversive after the behavior is performed
• Extinction seeks to decrease the frequency of a behavior by removing the consequence that is reinforcing it
• Punishment seeks to decrease the frequency of a behavior by introducing an aversive consequence immediately after the behavior
![Page 43: Influences on employee behavior](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546cba99af795985298b5101/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

Attitudes
• Second major influence on work behavior
• Attitude: a person’s general feeling of favorableness or unfavorableness toward some stimulus object
• A combination of attitudes with perceived social pressure to behave in a certain manner influences an individual’s behavior

Knowledge, Skills and Abilities (KSAs)
• If employees lack the KSAs to perform a task or behavior, they will likely fail
• Abilities – general capacities related to the performance of a set of tasks
• Skills – combine abilities with capabilities that are developed as a result of training and experience
• Knowledge – an understanding of factors or principles related to a particular subject
