Change Agent. The role of change agent is possible through organizational development.
Organizational Development: (1997-Idelfer) it is the process to enhance both the effectiveness
of organization as well as the wellbeing of its members to planed interventions. The both are
important in Organizational Development; the effectiveness of organization and individuals.
We combine both the components to change the intervention. The focus of some will be the
members of the organization and of some organizations. So when both the components are
combined the Organizational Developmentwill come into being. That process/activity will be
called Organizational Development.
If we way back in 1949 we come to know that its theoretical development starts by Kurt
Lewine.. He designed two components; Group Dynamics and Action research. Because of these
two concepts literature declares Lewine the founding father of Organizational Development.
The
Group Dynamics. Ways in which groups and individuals react to changing circumstances. The
basic philosophy of Lewine was in any form of change at individual as well as at organizational
level. It can be more effective on organizational level rather than on individual level. In this way
the more effective changing process/intervention will come into existence. Change will be more
effective if it is made on group level rather than on individual level. For example; if we talk
about Individual/groups. So the division of Group was also given by Lewine before him
psychologists focused on individuals. But Lewine said in late 1940s that group plays much
important role. Previous literature talks about individual rather group. Lewine gave the concept
of social psychology. At that time it was a new thing. Earlier only individual psychology wasdiscussed. He made it a proper discipline and focused on it at organizational level.
Action Research:
It is a process of actively participating in change effort or change management. It is a type of
research. How you collect the data in Action Research the researchers have to be the part of
process. Examples; if we get primary data the main methods which are use are hypothetic

methods. In hypothetic deductive method the researcher has to be limited. Here you have to use
the organization method. Example; research on children, Hofsted said that upto 10 a child can
learn his culture. Like in emotional psychology the research was held on children. For example:
In a research before almost 30 to 40 children of 03 to 06 years Marshmallow was taken and the
researcher went out of the room but kept on peeping them from the window. She (Micheal)
experimented that most of the children in spite of liking the Marshmallow do not take them while
other could not help taking them. Now she came to know that the children who did not take those
Marshmallows are more effective and good/successful in their future lives than the other who
took them. Their decision making was stronger. She gave this concept the name of preferred
gratification or ability to defer. Then a big discovery took place i.e. emotional intelligence. The
person whose EQ level is high is more successful than of IQ level. The basic reason of success of
Canady & Bush was because of their EQ level was very high.
It is not essential that the entire time we use questionnaire. Interview analysis method is ( ).
There are different methods of observation. First to observe the phenomena the 2ndis to become
the part of that culture/process and observe the things. So in Action Research Lewine gave the
same concept that you become the part of that process/culture and then take change.
Then mixing both the concepts Lewine presented a theory the change process theory which
was published after 11 years of his death in 1958. Then a school of thought was developed in
the university where he taught. The main follower of Lewine was Festinger. He is a very popular
researcher. His main work was presenting Cognitive Dissonance Theory. He was last of
Lewines mentalprotease.
Change Process theory (Lewine,1958): it seeks to explain the dynamics through which
organizational improvement and change take place. (Note: the death of Lewine was also due to
over work). He had madness for his work.
Then he identified three stages: starting from unfreezing----------moving-------- refreezing
To unfreeze the status quo/system/the existing system has to be changed for the change
management. He developed two concepts; process for change and process against change.
Here we have to see which force is stronger. So we have to unfreeze the concepts of For and

Against. Then we can move and if we go ahead without weakening them the change will not
occur. So we have to harmonize the pendulum. Change implementation is very difficult process
at national and international level. Example; drama in chekoslavakia. So there should be a
proper planned system. Firstly, you weaken the forces against change. (Example; of Huzrat
Muhammad (PBUH) moved gradually not at once. HE changed the behavior of individuals
(Sahabas) and then HE was allowed through revelation to openly preach Islam). When you have
moved then you have to re-freeze and control the Pendulum. Then the system successfully
works. This is the starting point of change management.
2nd
theory is Organizational Development implementation theory:
These interventions are specifically designed to reduce change. There are four types of
interventions:
Human process based intervention Techno structural intervention Socio-technical systems (STS) Organizational transformation(OT)
Human process Based intervention:
We focus on; individual, group, attitude, behavior, perception, values and problem solving
approaches. The focus is on both the groups; individual/group. This process is based on
behaviorism. The basic theories we can use; are need theory, expectancy theory. Which theory is
dominant? The concepts of these theories are also based on how to change the behavior of
human being/individuals. The element of group which is added in it is because of Lewine;
because he says that intervention should be designed around the group. Then in 1970s there is a
big name in Organizational Psychology I,e. Orgris(1970). He gave the concept of value of
information which means to pass information from one individual to another. If you
communicate properly then change is possible. What is the importance of information in change
implementation? The most hindrance we face is resistance to change. So you have to talk about
organizational development ie. unfreeze, move and refreeze. For example: you do MS so this
movement/development is an intervention so you change your career. So moving from status quo

is intervention. Here you have to intervene to make the change. So until individual/human is
changed then structure change/socio technical change gives zero result. So there should be a
proper change/role map with change agent that upto what level we have to go like;.
Objective:
. Change Agent
Existing stage
Which kind of people you need to reach. What should be their thinking pattern, problem solving
ability, attitude or behavior? You should have knowledge about the behavior/ability/attitude of
existing people and what kind of change is needed to take them upto existing stage. So, this all is
done to reach upto the stage of valued objectives. You have to intervene in this human behavior
to take change.
II: Techno Structural Intervention: Improving work contents and work methods, work flows,
performance factors and relationship among workers. Firstly the concept was developed by
(Friedlanger and Brown(1974). Improving work factors, we take structural form of changes.
Basically we take structure changes. Example; job enhancement, job enrichment etc are all
techno structure concepts. Task interdependence is also the example of TSI which shows how an
employee depends on another employee. In working process which changes we take that are also
the example of TSI. The techno structural changes as the concept given by
iii. Socio-Technical System (STS)
In its back hand concept was given by Trust Bamforth (1951) - Socio Technical System
Theory. If you do not care about social aspects of human being while designing the job it
negatively impacts on the employees. So after the presentation of this theory this negative aspect
was also removed.
It is directed towards a fit between technological configuration and social structure of unit. If you
will not join job design and social structure then change and development will not be possible. It
requires what are the needs of the workers while designing the jobs. So you have to make such
intervention which could help the works to meet socialization needs. It has strong relation with

organizational culture. In hierarchy it is also seen. So culture plays a vital role as the employees
who are working in the organization have come from different cultures.
III: Organizational Transformation(OT)
Bechhard,(1969): Organizations are complex human systems each possessing unique
characteristics, culture and value systems along-with information and work procedure that must
be continuously examined / analyzed and improved. Each organization has unique identity. We
practically examine these all aspects like; people, group; culture, value system etc. and you
continuously make changes where there it is needed. Change is part of routine of that system.
Changes intervention, assessment, evaluation and implementation is a part of culture of that
organization. It is the most difficult part of intervention. Change is continuously examined then
accordingly it is implemented.
Pora and Selve (1991) Model of planned intervention Model
Type of Intervention:
Organization Transformation Organization Development
Types of Intervention Target Variables in Organization
OT At the organizational level: Mission, purpose andphilosophy.
OD At the organizational level: Structure, Physical setting,Technology, Social Factors, Organizing arrangements.
The Outcome of Both/Combined impact of OT/OD
: Its combined impacts is on individual organizational members
Combined Impact of OD/OT
At Individual Level they identify cognitivechanges

Its impact will be on change in behavior

The outcome of Organizational will be on:
Improved organizational performance
Individual development
Alpha You just need change in skills not in job design
Beeta Change in work standard
GamaA The focus in Change will be from quantity toQuality
Gama B Change from paradigm to another paradigm ie.Product focus to customer focus.
So we will come to know kinds of change from above will be needed. The behavior of individual
will be change and the organizational performance will be improved. So this is OD.
So whole OD philosophy /process has been discussed. Which kind of Intervention is required at individual/organizational level? Outcome with behavior And its impact on organization
Types of Interventions:
Practical Implementation Methods:
i)- Human Process Based Intervention: if u will do then it has following methods to be
used:-
Survey Feedback: What is your analysis for intervention of human being process.?You have take change in H behavior. What is existing situation with ref. to employee,
their level of motivation, level satisfaction. Required outcome. In which situation u r atpresent. Curent situation and desired intervention. U have to identify gap that we have to
get this change and what are the desired problem areas, generating situation. and then and
then motivating for change. This process is called survey feedback process. Change
varies from need to need. For example you have to change skill of employee then it is
low gap and if u have to get change at big level then whol org. culture is going to be
change like; u go to new philosophy, technical change, work design change, work

Raza Qazi SHRM Notes
system change. So u see what are desired objective and what is existing situation and
according to that u make interventions. (Example; Railway change: and worker rest time
and how to stop work).
Team Building: You have design intervention around teams (roles should beclearly defined., norms are also very important like; how I have to behave, sit so there
should be harmony in every action of employees. Team building is very difficult to
handle because to motivate people in a team is very difficult task. In team building there
are some stages (forming, norming, storming). The main hindrance is Conflict. Conflict
in a group decreases performance. The second is Group think. You developed team for
energy that outcome should be more than individual effort. But some time in a team there
is no conflict and there is harmony but there is no performance that is because of group
think. It is disease for groups. Actually some kinds of norms are developed for consensus
in a group. Norms for consensus are developed it overweight the realistic appraisal of the
creation. If difference of opinion will be vanished then it is called group think. Function
conflict and dysfunctional conflict. If there is not functional conflict then it is because of
group think
(Group/Team: every person works by living in his domain in a group and their no goal
clarity while in a team every person helps each other, they support each other and there is
goal clarity).
Social Loafing: An individual thinks that other person is working then I need not to
work. Tendency to do less effort and to gain more grades. Individual does not exert
effort. So the size of group should be less if group will be based on more people then
there are chances of social loafing.
There are different ways to avoid to Group thin.
Second Type is Socio Techno Structural Type of Intervention:
Job Enlargement It is horizontal expansion of job. Here the jobs have beendesigned for the employee.
Job enrichment It is vertical expansion of job. Individual should be giventhe autonomy of the job to design it, plane it andimplement it.

Alternative work schedules Compressed work need:(working hrs have been increased and then workerhave been given leave
Flextime schedule: here u give flexibility in time:like; to mothers. So time is in the hand of peoplewho make the time schedule according to theiravailability. Telecommunicating change:
If an individual wants to work at home he may bedo. The main thing is outcome. You have changework design.

Human Process:
human
Structural Designs
Job Design
Ethical and social impacts after 1980
It is very important phenomena. TQM, Quality management, quality circle, these all are used as
org. interventions. Here human process and structural designs are joined.
Quality Circle:
Quality related to concepts. This concept was most defined by Japanese. Quality circle was the
main focus of Japan organizations. The concept was given by USA but practically it was used
by Japanese organizations. These people make a team which watch quality of each department
and discuss these issues, resolve it and then implement. So other orgs of the world studied it and
they done the same jobs as Japanese did. So a popular intervention was developed to watch out
all the important units of the org. and identify and resolve the problem. These problems can only
be solved by the people who actually face that problem. The approach of top to bottom is
planned by the persons who are sitting the top management.
The one approach is tradition approach. It means that the person who is sitting at the top
management they make strategies and set the targets and then they move towards downwards
and at all the level communication if made. Its alternate planning concept was MBO which was
very successful than traditional goal settings. The main concept of MBO was a participate setting
of goal. It is almost an extension of Quality Circle, here all people also set some goals,
objectives, targets are selected at the department level which become successfully and discussion
is made and at participative goals are selected. The concept of MBO is successful that traditional
H.R. You give feedback of the goals.
Empower of Goals
You empower the people. Then the people who are in empowerment they identify the problems
and make solutions and its social aspect is that when you the studies which have made on it is

production & sate etc. Its ultimate outcome will be that your defect rate will decline and its ideal
stage is Zero defect and then intense focus on customers. This philosophy when Deming
presented this in USA in late sixties at that time the main influence relate to production was of
Tailorism. Their focus was how to increase; Output, production, number of units and quality.
At that time to increase the profitability the main purpose was; the more youproduce the more
you cannot __________.
Note: Taylor also changed the idea of scientific interventions in his Steel Company. He made
structural intervention in his work force. He made intervention with the same work force and
gave outcome of 12 tons steel of a day into 48 tons in a day. So, in the whole world a structural
change was made after Taylors intervention and so many companies flourished and capability of
the employees increased a lot. So, Taylor gave the concept that we can earn a lot by producing
less just because of quality work. So, when Demming gave this concept the American did not
like this concept. So, he changed his mind set and went to Japan and when he started his work
there Japanese appreciated his concept a lot. So, the products of Japans became a symbol for the
whole world. Hence to make quality your employee should be involved intrinsically. The quality
is concerned to them as they are concerned with the likes and dislikes of the customer and in that
way they make quality of the product:
Six Sigma Quality standards:
This concept is that if you make one millions products i.e. Zeero defect as there is not defect in
the product and its impact will in the form of customers satisfaction. It means that there is no
defect in the product. Its output will in the form of customers satisfaction. From the
management point of view TQM is philosophy of management.
Third Term - Self-Managed Team
It is a team in which its members are interdependent and have authority to regulate the activities.
All the group members design the plan and make intervention. Hence, interdependence is self-
motivated concept. So it is a team which is
Task interdependence; i.e. to achieve the tasks. Team work collectively and it is

Interdependence on eachThere is no formal guidance so to obtain objectives. In our organizational we just complete time
and we do not use the philosophy of change and intervention. Until you change the mindset of
people you cannot flourish your orgs. The main problem is lying at our top level management.
Organizational Transformational Intervention (OTI):
It is implementation with transformation. We transform it with something new. Its big
intervention is cultural intervention i.e. Change in organizational culture. We define it with three
components:
Beliefs: Values the concept of right or wrong Norms; standards, so being set of that org you have to act upon its norms. So the members
who come later on take the history/legacy of organizations a set of stories. So these all
outcomes are the standard of the organizations. When an employee learns all these cultural
value of that organization he is engrossed in that organization. Now when that individual is
so engrossed in that organization it not possible to change him. This culture shows a proper
fit between employees and organization. Now problem entails when there is change in
environment and accordingly you have to get change in your organizations and if you willnot get change then this fit between organization and employee will not be possible. So you
have implement change in your environment, in your beliefs, values and norm and also the
change in the mindset of your employees. So this whole concept is Organizational
Transformational Intervention. It is ultimately manageable and if it is not changed then its
outcome will be very horrible.
Strategic Change:
The major difference between cultural intervention and Strategic Change is that in cultural
change the basic philosophy of org is that the companys main mission is not changed but in
strategic change you have to change the mission of organization rather you redefine the mission.
In other words you change altogether the whole strategy / objectives of the organization. The
main example is of General Electric, 1980. It acquired 330 businesses and sold 230 business and

they closed 73 tasks. The used a massive way of change. So after such a drastic change they
acquired new business and sold business and then redefined their mission.
03rd
InterventionHigh Performance Work System:
We take it a form of intervention. We talk about transforming the whole organization. The
organizational level strategy means; alignment of with common system. H.R. related system and
their proper alignment. And work practices (HR) now they exist in form of system and its impact
we straight away take with performance. This intervention which we take it in the its major
change at org level will that now your focus will be on performance and you have to take you
practices in form of system. It is complicated subject. The main focus of HPWS is that now
practices are implemented in the form of work systems and for that we have to take system
theory that how we implement it as system theory either we implement it in the form of HR
bundles. So there is combination of different work system and these practices support each other
within that system and missing of a single system will impact on the performance. So these all
systems ultimately work as a system. Further, we take HPWS as an intervention.
Career Development:
The research which was made in 1990s is psychological contract. There is close relation between
psychological contract and career development. There are different perspective and in different
ways CD is defined:
i. With reference to occupation Theme: i.e. my career is Accounting/salesii. With reference to Tenure Theme: with this refence career is defined relative to tenure
spent in organization i.e. passing of time in organization. So time spent in an organization
is also defined with tenure.
iii. Advancement Theme: progression in any occupation. Again we use advancement ascareer.
iv. Involvement Theme: in any task or job excessive involvement is called involvementtheme. For example; an individual sings songs all the time which socially is not accepted
but being a career he is at right.

v. Stability of Work Pattern: You do not switch the sequence of work and do not docareer switching. So an individual continuously work in particular work.
Models: For the advancement of career different people have developed different models.
The most popular models have been given by Greenhous,2000. He divided career development
in five stages:
Stage-1 = 0 to 25 years (Occupation choice)
It is linked with age. It is such a stage of your career you prepare yourself for occupation choice.
You select career. It is in the background of Levinson (1986) model life stages model. He
divided Human mind in five stages. Holland also gave a model of this type. Holland said about
career said; individuals choice of career is the expression of his personality. An individuals
personality can be judged with his career but if the career is selected by choice not by force. The
model of Holland is : RIASEC
Realistic investigative Artistic Social
Enterprising ConventionalSo he defined personality codes with the personality of the individuals and if the personality ofindividual is matched with these codes then job performance will be improved a lot.
Stage-2-(18 to 25)
Organizational Entry. In this time period career choice is going and we also accept the job
because if we have best choice we accept the job.
Stage3(25-40)
This is a time period of early career ie. establishment and achievement, learning. Once you start
the career. It is such a period when an individual has to go ahead. This is a stage of achievement
in case you have chosen the career by choice. This is a period of enhancement. Your learning
also increases. If the career is selected by choice then Ok otherwise no learning/achievement.

Stage4 (40-55)
Lewinson made the life turning model in which turning point was 40 years in which he has
shown change in the maturity level of an individual, his thinking pattern was changed. The
individual re-invests his life. Individual thinks that almost half of life has passed. He thinks
which decisions he has made good and which bad. This is the stage of re-appraisal. In case of re-
appraisal you think to either continue the same career and to leave the career. In case of not
achieving the goals you go for career change. The people think of going towards another career.
As if you have not got success in 15 years then you will change the career. If you are expert then
people think you as mentor, people give you value because of your learning. So first 15 years is
the period of achievement and after that you get reward of that period.
Stage-5 (55 to Retirement) Last stage
The main concern of this stage of your career is on productivity. If you are giving productivity
then you are successful and you will be working even upto.70years Further this stage is difficulty
psychologically as before that stage you have achieved so many successes but now younger
generation has taken your stage so you have to be strong psychologically. In some case the
people even do not continue their job/career.
The Role of S.H.R. in Career Development.
The main contribution in Career management or Career Development disscuss the responsibility.
The main role is of organization. The individual is doing effort but to provide carreer path is the
responsibility of organization. You work in an organization for 25 years and the org. give you
opportunity to enhance you career. Now that strategy has changed into Psychological contracts.
Psychological contracts:
Why it is involved in the Career Development. It is defined as an un-written agreement between
employees and employers based on norms of reciprocity. It is based on social exchange theory.
Initially presented by Houmen in 1960 and then Blau in 1960. In social exchange theory the
theorist say that any relationship in the world exist without norms of reciprocity. It is most
influential theory. The relationship between employee and employer is also based on norms of

reciprocity. It is also based on psychological contracts as employee works in that organization
expects that if I am loyal with the organization then the organization should give me job security
and all the opportunity of career development. Now in 1980 different strategies started and the
most popular was cost leadership strategy that was started by Porter which was very popular. The
focus of cost leadership strategy is to take efficiency in your system and to increase. Cost is
reduced and the impact of cost deduction is transferred to your customer. Now for the companies
it was difficult to reduce the cost so they started downsizing in the whole world. Now this
negatively impacted the employees who were working properly. So in this decade the
psychology of employees changed and they started thinking that there is no need to be loyal with
your organization so a slogan was raised that no more loyalty to the organizations. After that so
many changes were made as the employees started turnover from the organization and they also
showed less commitment.
Career Development:
There was a possibility of life long career. Now employee thinks that there is no need to be loyal
with the organization and he started Zig Zag career paths and started using different paths of
careers and started protean careers. The quality that protean was that he changed himself
according to the situation. The employee transforms according to the requirement of the job.
Now the employee change their skill according to job.
Boundary Line Career:
Which means multiple careers in the multiple organizations.

Impact on organizations.
Now organizations started their psychology. Now they think that these employees will not work
for a long time. Now they facilitate the individuals. The change at organizational level was that
responsibility changed from organizational development to individual development. The
organizations take more and more work from that individual. Now individual work in such an
organization which enhance his career and give him change enhance his career, provide him
knowledge. The companies also realized that. The types of psychological contracts are two:-
Transactional Relational
The organizations after redefinition of psychological contract categorized their employees. These
categories have many kinds. To categorize the assessment of the employees. Every organization
should have the knowledge of its central core. If the people are leaving the job from central core
then it is alarming for the organization. The organization should have a different kind of
psychological contract with its key employees. These employee paid more and they are also
given reward a lot. You take such an action that you contain your central core.

LECTURE NO.03 - 11-05-2014
Performance Management:
We will discuss traditional performance Management
Traditional Performance Management
In traditional PM most of the focus is given to employee and his evaluation. In tradional PM
employee is focused. When the element of strategic was added in it then its focus was not only
employees but employees appraisal and evaluation is also added in it.
But in SHRM this performance management is organizational performance that how it works.
After later 1997-98 a concept of was most popular was Balance Score Card approach started
which is totally strategic in nature where three four important components are combine and then
the process of performance is determined and performance management is completed. This
process of Pr. Management starting from the tradition that here which kind of things were
focused and today when talk about strategic PM then we talk at org level, over all how org. Per is
managed and how BSC approach is used. Overall today practically all organizations focus on
BSC. They do not use single dimension of PM. How you focus on employee and their capability.
What sort of characteristics are required in org and you combined these all and practically u see
that overall performance is aligned with ur Strategy. You have developed the strategy then you
implement strategy and u see how much it is aligned the with the performance strategy. 2 nd in
SHRM there is no thing is link of Performance management and Traditional HR performance its
evaluation occurs after a certain period of time. Appraisal is yearly, half year and quarterly. You
talk about performance in a specific time and balance score card and in that evaluation is side byside monitoring there is complete back up. You are implementing strategy and aslo evaluating,
so that you may monitor the performance. There is consistent element of feed back of SHRM is
attached. So if we see with this reference to traditional HR and SHRM then we see a totally
different concept. This whole literature was developing in the last twenty years ie after 1995. For
example; BSC in 1998 and HPWS in 1995 when these all things are combined then overall a
performance management is completed.. Again its a complete discipline.

Overview of Performance management with Tradition HR
If you talk about training performance management, compensation we see that the most
important role is strategy development from the organization and ultimately plays its role to
implement it among the employees (Traning). In the performance management the most critical
issue that here the nature of your analysis is almost is more right subjective in nature although its
related your objective criteria KPI (key performance indicators) you develop these KPI so that
you may know that what performance indicators you kept for the employees and what averages
you define and what was employees performance against these KPI. So in this context we can
that in performance management there some components which are objective in nature. You
have given some tasks and the employee done that. You gave some target / responsibility he
achieved that target which KPI. But the biggest component of PM is subjective in nature which
means that there are 2 people are involved the person who is evaluator (Rater-Boss) and the
person who is to be evaluated (Ratee-performer). There are two persons who are involved in it
(Rater & Ratee i.e. Boss and Performer)
Note: The outcome / end come do matter but means also has worth i.e. how much he was
committed, how performed his job, how was behavior with his colleagues/boss, how much time
he gave to his work et. This all assessment will be done by the rater subjectively. The objective
indicators are not problematic as these can be measured but subjective indicators can not be
measured. The subjective only rater role is not involved rather employee himself is also
involved in it that how he presents himself in his job ie. Impression management. Here the rater
can be biased in decision making. This is psychological issue even in Traditional HR. If the
employee is good with the rater then if the ratee is not giving result even then his evaluation can
be good. So, how to eliminate these issues i.e. biases, impression managements very difficult
because you cannot eliminate this issue in performance management. At the time evaluation therater never see the hardworking which employee has done rather objective issues are also
involved in it.

Rater:
How many factors impact the rater i.e. supervisor while rating so, there are different theories.
The most important theory was attribution theory mainly presented by (Keller, 1972) while its
basic present was (Harder,1920).
Everybody wants cognitive control over environment by explaining causes of others and
behavior. In simple words whenever we observe behavior of someone we have to understand
cognitive control of the environment involved in it. We see the reason behind it. We see the
environment involve in it. Unless we find the causes/reason we cannot say that why the
individual has done that job. There different types of behavior like normal / routine behavior. For
example; the normal time of class is 09 AM but a student reaches in class late then this is a
behavior not a normal behavior then the teacher will have to understand the reason behind that.
This is a sort of exhibition theory. There can be two possible reasons:-
Internal Causes External Causes
The causes which are within the control of theorganization.
For example a student comes late in school sothis is internal cause as it is within the controlof an individual to get up early in morning.
Which are beyond the control of theorganization
There is some obstacle due to some movement,agitation etc like the procession of Imran Khanand Tahir-ul-Qadri.
Two further components:
1- Fundamental attribution errors:It suggests that we have a tendency to overestimate the impact of internal factors and under
estimate the impact of external factors when we are making judgment about others. This is thebasic psyche of human being that we overestimate the internal factors and we under estimate the
external factor when we are making judgment about others.
2- Self Serving Bias:Relating our own success to internal factors and failure to external factors that we make decision
about ourselves this is internal factor and when we do not pass the exams then we attribute this

blame to our external factor and we curse our luck. This is very important theory and on the basis
of this theory one can change himself. It describes the psyche in detail. The evaluation of
employee by a rater is a sort of behavior. If the evaluation is positive the outcome of the
employee performance will be positive.
Note; Here LMX theory the leaders when perform job at any place they distribution their
employees in two groups.
In-group Out-group
Near to level and they give high rate to theirclosed people so their performance is alsopositive. What kind of performance they givethey will be rated good. Their performance willbe counted highly.
The people of out-group will not be given goodrate even if they give high performance.
.This theory came in 1995 which is very important. In any organization of the world there are
some people who are near to the leader and they are rated very highly. Leadersexpectations are
very high about them. Now there is ability of the leader that which kinds of people he takes in his
group but unfortunately in Pakistan the people who are close to the leader is not necessary that
they will be capable.
Self-fulfilling Prophecy
The leaders expectation is very high to the people who are in their in-group why; that they are
goof performance and they will perform well. So, a theory of self fulfilling prophecy came into
being which is also called Rosenthal effect and Pygmalion effect. Rosenthal was a researcher and
he made a group of the students in three categories. He made three groups of students and then
handed over these students to the teacher:
Group A Group B Group C
These students gave good performance while inactual they were in group C but due good
expectation of the teacher they gave goodperformance. As the expectation of the teacherwas very about these students so they startedgiving good performance that is why it is calledself-fulfilling prophecy. So ultimately their
While these student gave normal result.
Because the expectation of the teacher was
less than the students of group A

performance rating is also very high.
If we combine these factors then there are different theories. For example the literature of biases
was written by ___________ who says that while making decision we are very biased because of
different reasons. So if we combined factor this entire factor we will say that performance of
organization or appraisal is actually decision making. If an individual has to make decision
making about other performers then there will impact of ______ and biases; for example which
kinds of factors are there and how much time you have and what is the situation? When we make
decision we have to see following factor in account:-
Availability: that the information is readily is available and by making base we make decision.
Representation: here we take into account the past performance of the individual. The
individual performs well all the time. So we have to see his performance. Then we predict future
performance on the basis of past performance. So when we combine all this factor then the
process of decision making is completed by the rator, there will be contribution, biases and then
the process of decision making will be started. In organizational performance means matter more
than the ends. When we combine all these factors then the process organizational performance is
completed. Only doing much hardworking you cannot be rated highly so means matter a lot
than outcome or End
Role of Ratee:
The role of rate is also very important. Mintzber said in 1990 that organizations are inherently
political arenas and one needs political skills to survive and succeed. Here the researcher talked
about the political and said that your criteria of performance matters a lot. If the criteria of PM is
simple the political issues will be less and if the criteria of PM will be vague there the chance of
politics will be a lot.
The most famous researchers of literature about politics are Ferris and Judge, 1991.These are big name of writing on organizational politics. They actually present political
influence perspectives of the organizations. The role of rate: i) the impression
management in general and they gave it the name of assertive tactics(Ferris) which mean

that in subjective tactics youre your evaluation is to be done then which kinds of tactics
will be used. These tactics are as under:-
Ingratiation:which they call proactive attempt. Other enhancement: flattery Conformity: yes sir. To come in in-group yes sir is necessary as boss is always right. Sub-servant Behavior: showing humility to get positive impression. Self-Promotion: To do less work and to promote it more.These tactics should not be present but these have paved their way in our organizations
strongly. In an organization perception plays its role. If a person is in the group of politics he
will see everything as good and if he will not be in that group then he will say everything is
wrong. So researchers have related these tactics with:-
Criteria of Evaluation:
If the criteria are clear in the organization then use of these tactics will be less but if criteria
is not clear / ambiguous then these tactics work more. In our country the criteria of
performance management is not clear so here End less and Meanwill effect more and
the people use these tactics and show themselves good in the eyes of boss. The concept ofOCB is a extra role behavior a positive behavior but the researcher say that OCB is
basically impression management as Good Soldier Good Actor. In the impression
management the person who is good actor he is good in the eyes of boss. Example; although
a person is not so capable but he shows himself in such a way before the boss that his
impression becomes good before the boss. He will take such a task which he actually cannot
do but to give good impression before the boss he takes that job. Now Organ says that this is
OCB while other researchers say it is impression management. OCB is also culture specific
How to change Traditional HR it in SHRM
Now in SHRM which are the factors by virtue of which performance management was
emerged in a new format.

Strategic Performance Management: Now in its distinction HPWS is also related to it
when we take performance management from human resource practices into the domain of
work system. Now we will that performance management is how much related to work
system. For this a concept has been used which is called Balance Score Card.
Balance Score Card(Kaplan and Nortor (1992). Then in 1998 it gained popularity. Here we
see that which perspectives are actually working. This approach is a term in Kaplan and
Norton say that they used Performance as a variable and they also changed its concept.
Performance matters that your Org Perf is linked with the satisfaction of your stake holder
then we will say that Org is performing well. In this context there are four
perspective/performance indicators.
i)- Financial Performance:
It is a key financing that how should we appear to the how should we appear to
shareholders? How we will satisfy shareholders so we disclose information strategically.
So, Balance Score Card shows that which things to present at which time. The people
who are running the org they know that which kind of information will be given to
shareholders at which time. So this kind of information is also strategic information. If
we are making financial statement here we will not use all the things. Only you know
your long term objectives so BSC shows that which kind of information will be informed
at which time. It is the duty of finance org that which information is to be disclosed to the
people. So the information should be symmetrical.
ii)- Customers
To be successful how should we appear to customers? You have to disclose information
to customers strategically. For shareholder it is important but for customers innovations it
matters i.e how much you are innovative and, creative. Which products you offer, whatare you future plane. In the current scenario innovation plays its role.
iii)- Internal Business Process
it means to meet expectations of our shareholders and customers. In the first he said
expectation of shareholders and in the 2ndhe said expectation of customers. The internal
business combined both the components(S&C) and good businesses process should we

excel? So these strategies are related to performance. Now what is their expectation as
their todays expectations will affect the future expectations. In BSC we assess our
futures strategies. If we will not make our expectation of current scenario keeping in
view the future expectation then success is not possible.
iv)- Learning and Growth:
To achieve our vision and strategies how we sustain our ability to change and improve.
How much there is room in your strategies of learning and growth. How much you are
taking change in your strategies according to external environment. How much you are
taking change that will prove that where are you standing in the market and how your
customers are satisfied with you.
Steps Involved in Strategic Performance Management to Improve
Process of Strategic Performance Management:
A. Reinforcing Organizations Mission. If you have to implement PM at strategic levethen PM should be part of your organization that how will start performance
management. Ferris says that until PM is included in your mission. Now how we
include mission in PM the first one is:
a- Role of Employees: it has comprehensively defined by Purcell (2003) and he proposedA+M+O model. So at the employee level you need A
A-Ability: if the employee has not ability to achieve mission the mission is not
possible to be achieved. The first thing is whether the employee is having the right ability
/ knowledge to implement or pursue mission.
M- Motivation:
Whether employees are motivated to do work and do well. As ability can be developed in
some forms but inspite of skills or ability if people are not motivated to work then theseall skills and abilities will have no worth for the organization. So it is the duty of manager
to understand the situation. The ability what is the ability/skill in the employee and how
work is to take from him. So understand this is the ability of a manager.

should be given opportunity to use their skill. To provide opportunity to such employee
who has that ability then the employee will be able to perform well.

Performance Management:
What is basically Strategic Performance Management?
It is basically a process when we combined different components which are ultimately converted
in Strategic Performance management. In balance score card it is not only concerned about
organizational performance and to some extent variable performance. There are stake holders
involved what is their role, customers involved, shareholders the point of all of them not only
this thing what is actually performance and the 2ndpoint is that how could you appear i.e. how
your performance should appear. The people who you are managing that the organizations as all
the information are not disclosed with the shareholders as there are some limits for disclosing the
information there are some principles.
The principle of Disclosure:
The principal of disclosure is adopted and like that disclosing of information is also based on
companys principals. But the As in some cases if the information is disclosed it can be misused.
In principle you will disclosed such information in your finance statement which are required for
the individuals or for the shareholder otherwise you will have to face problem. So in Balance
Score Care approach or in performance the distinguishing characteristic is that what is your
actual performance and what is actually required.
The False Indicators:
In the industry Whatever the management is disclosing, like; Venture outcome, market share,
companies image whatever they are talking the positive indicators of this all they actually show
that how the companies is performing and how much the company is competent and efficient. So
instead of realistic disclosure the organizations go toward exaggeration so that their performance
could look positive. The 2nd problem with thing is that the focus of mngt is mainly short term

because there is no such Co where management think that we will be sitting in the org. and
working in this management. So they dont go for long term projects asthe manager thinks that
after 05 or 10 it might be possible that I will not be working in this organization so the manager
thinks what the need of working for long projects is. So they go for such work which give
immediate performance so that next year when the companys board director is sitting they think
that the organization is working very well, performance is well and profit earning is more than
earning in long term. In long the profitability could be more than this. However, side by side its
positive aspects there are negative aspects of it as in most of the companies such examples are
there where big scandals were exposed. They misused the information with the collaboration of
finance people and they showed / exaggerated profitability in financial statement and these
companies started showing profitability in a very short span of time. So within the day the shares
of these companies which were sold for 500$ now they are not sold even for $0. The
shareholders faced the loss of billions of dollars just because of this thing. The shareholders
thought that companies are earning a lot and their shares will be beneficial for them. The reason
behind this that to measure or management performance of management that was in models as
per detail given below:-
Mechanics of Control (Corporate). The board of director is in tiers:-
Tier-1 Monitoring In monitoring there are independent directors and people from the Govt.and they all are monitoring the performance and these people of doingexecution have the authority to fire the individual and to restrict themthey monitor their performance. There is mechanism of control. If theorganization is not showing good performance and concealing theinformation they have this mechanism is available to check them. But inUSA etc there is a different mechanism being used than corporatedirector. They have one board of director and they have one Tier and inthat tier management is also included and they are monitoring as well as
at the work of execution. In such companies the chairman of BOD &CEO is the independent person in both Tier 1 & Tier2. This model ismainly based on trust. The CEO of the company should be trustedthinking that he is working in the best interest of the company.
Tier-2 Execution In execution there comes your whole management.

This module is based on trust. When an agent has been hired by the company as per agency
theory you have to trust on them and assume that whatever they are doing that is in accordance
with the best interest of the company.
Whistle Blower protection. Internal and external i.e. within the organization and outside the
organization. You cannot fire the whistle blower protector unless the matter is properly
investigate. In Pakistan hiring / firing is most difficult process. In Pakistan Whistle Blower
protection board is not present. There is no other country in the world who could give such a
high protection to its employees as in Pakistan courts give much help to the employees if the
case goes to the court.
Performance Disclosure:
When you are disclosing the performance management at strategic level then an important role
comes that what is the integrity of the people of your organization. The main topics are focused
on ethics like; profits leadership, ethical leadership. These all things are focused if your
organizations are not focusing then making tiers and integrity will not be able to increased and
performance will be increased.
Strategic Performance management process:
1- Individual Role2- Role of Management3- Relating individuals objectives with organizations objectives. In this context if
individuals objectives and organizations objectives then the performance at strategic
can be evaluated. Now what should be the mechanism? In the literature the most
important support is of The Goad Setting Theory (Lock,1981). This theory has the
history of 33 years and it is still valid today. Lot of literature is available in its support.
In other domain there is a lot of support for Induction based Research the concept given by
(Lock). In social sciences totally everything has been related in numbers so induction based
theory should be used in social sciences:

i. Specific goalii. Difficult (realistic) Goals (SMART measurement)
These goals improve performance.
Management By Objectives:
The most import relating implication of it is MBO. It is practical outcome or implication of Goal
Setting Theory. In MBO the Traditional mod of GST top to bottom approach is followed. Goals
are set at top level and then they are communicated at low level and at low level people
implement them.
The Basic Characteristics if MBO
Collective setting of Goals:You can relate this with performance. The feedback is taken from the functional level. it is
not only the responsibility of top level to set goals rather the levels of your organizations top
level, middle level and functional level. At functional level all the units set goals and then
these goals are mutually discussed collaboratively at their level and then these goals are attop level. The main objective of CSG is that you can relate this with the performance. It is
the duty of the employees working functional level and which is a sort of reactive approach.
These people have to follow these directions. For example; a person is working in sales and
he has been give some targets to achieve them, so he will responsible to answer the questions
of the organization.Now the objectives of org have matched with the individuals objective.
If that person does not achieve the goal then that person is countable as well.
Process of Feed-Back and Monitoring:It is very important. The target / goats you set for that whatever MBO implement that target
takes time to work. Let say a target is given in 2014 it does not mean one year it is possible
that this target has 10 milestones there are important components and for that milestones
which you initially decided you are questioned i.e. these were our objectives and in first

quarter what we have done, what we have achieved and what kinds of were faced and again
to achieved objectives upto end is easy.
The 3rd advantage of this is that managements usually avoid long term objectives thinkingthat after 05 or 10 years we will not be here so there is no need for long term objectives. So
the management shifted them from long term objectives to short term objectives. Now the
managements for example divide long term objectives into 10 different milestones indicators.
Then the current managers work on the milestones targeted to them and they are least
concerned the milestones other than their own milestones. Every person works on him
milestone and he is least concerned with other milestone/objectives. Now the organizations
will relate these objectives with the performance of the employees. The current
organizational structure in the organizations is based on project based structure.
Project Based Structure:
The organization executes their tasks /activity rather at project level rather than at
organizational level. They define an independent project, this project has different
management, its HR is different and all other activities are different. Today it is a big
challenge to run a project.
Gain SharingIt is totally linked with your performance. In the same organizations different people are
working but reward is given to the entire persons either they work or not. This gain is
divided with target and with achieving. Now the marketing department has achieved 50%
targets now they will gain share accordingly. This gain sharing is watched at all levels of
the organizations from lower to top. Now this concept of gain sharing has changed this
concept and the reward was given to only those persons who basically have done some
job and achieved their goals.
Performance Based Pay:The organizational has changed the fixed pay system. They have divided it with fixed
plus variable. The pay / reward is given on performance and achieving of target and

giving outputs and no one has objection of salary and reward. Now the system of pay has
also been changed. In this concept the salary is given to all the persons but according to
their performance and targets they have achieved. So the people are also satisfied as the
criteria are clear to all of them and every person is satisfaction although outwardly it
looks a sort of injustice but the people who are getting that reward they know that they
are rightful to getting that much reward/salary.. In justice procedural matters more than
distributive that through which mechanism you have gained that share. In profit sharing
your focus is on equal distribution but in procedural justice procedure matters that
whatever a person has performed the job he is given the reward accordingly. These are
outcome of Equity Theory.
Flexible Benefits (means of choices)Expectancy Theory
Your reward should match your goals. On this basis what is its integration today orgs.
Give rewards that are in form of flexible benefit. Practically when organizations give
single reward that said that said cannot satisfy the need of every employee. Practically
when practically organizations give reward to their employees they said that a single
reward cannot satisfy the need of employees. Flexible benefits are a Manu of prices.
There is long list of rewards you achieve your target and then take your reward according
to his needs; it can be in monetary term it can in for some promotion, it can be in form
of some important changing. Different people have different needs and accordingly to
that need the employee is given reward. The employee has achieved target and he looks
the menu and says that he may be given that reward which could give him maximum
satisfaction. Researchers say that financial reward to different people is not attractive in
all the cases.
Note:job is calling by God the person who works committedly he fulfills the task thinking
that as calling by God. The second example is of Munchalay Ka Soda where the lesson of
honesty is given. The concept of Islamic Work Ethics is the same. So the persons who do not
work in the organization honestly they will be in much loss. Honesty is the Best Policy

Conclusion:
Now ultimately by making case from MBO to goal setting of individuals individuals goal
setting theory level we debate with Organizational Objectives and make assess of both at a time.
Today MBO is applied the worlds best organizationand they work in the organization. Its basic
advantage is that all goals are aligned from the lowest level to highest level. When objectives are
completed then their assessment is very easy. Performance appraisal is done at lowest level and
when performance objectives are achieved/completed then you can tell to each unit that which
unit has achieved how much objectives and overall organizations objectives have been
achieved. This process, very simple theory but itspractically implication is very important for
all the organizations.
Role of Strategic Performance Management and High Performance Work System:
HPWS is taken overall at organizational level. How this work system work in organizations.
Performance management is an important component of HPWS. But perhaps except performance
Management there is no work system or HRP which is present in almost all work systems. When
we make work system then there are different sub systems like;
Performance Enhancing Work System (PM, and HR practice) Skill Enhancing Work System (R&S, T&D and so on) Motivation Enhancing bundle of Work System(pay for performance, reward
management and so on)
The work-system or HRP in performance management suppose you can see them here
practically. But what happens that in this work system or PM as separate outcome for example;
the employee has performed well and achieved the target. Now you have to give him reward and
compensate him, there is a mechanism of gain sharing and pay for performance. Now the impact
of this work system will come on Motivation enhancing Work System The pay for
performance which you give that is linked with this work system. This is dependent on this work
system.

Here you say that employeesperformance is not accurate and there are deficiencies in him for
which you have to train him. So here the impact of this work system will come on you Skill
enhancing work system
Here you will develop this HRP or WS then it will be linked with performance management.
You have to give reward or punishment to an employee and if there is not procedural justice in
you work system then it impact will come on motivation of employee negatively.
Selection: here if you see that there is lack of ability in our employees have deficiency which
cannot be removed through training. Now the nature of situation is such that you have to recruitnew work force then its impacts will come your Recruitment & Selection.
So literature suggests that your performance management system is linked with all other work
systems. It impacts on training, compensation, Recruitment & selection. The people who work
well you as reward promote them then this will impact on your career management. So
Performance management literature suggests is at the center of all other WS or HRP and all other
systems are linked /integrated with it. So if you will not run it properly then your whole
structure/system will disturb. You will create problem in selection, R&C, training,justice/reward/equity/promotion. So overall you whole the structure of your overall HPWS will
disturb in you are not effectively implementing work system. Performance management lies at
the heart of work system.

Compensation Management
25-04-2014
Today we discuss compensation management and then we add in it the elements of strategic
compensation management. We will discuss that which element work in traditional
Compensation Management and which kind of elements have change the concept of traditional
Compensation Management into strategic Compensation Management . CM is such a
component of HR that we have added most of elements of economics in it. Our all the current
literature of CM is combination of diverse discipline. At one side eco principles and then how
we add in the discipline HR and then these both will be added and then SCM will come into
existence.
Leadership and the motivation are two theories which come into HR. The motivation theory also
work for the literature of CM. The main effect is three theories as under:-
Social Exchange Theory. It is a strong and universal theory and its element is seen in almost all
the H.R. its concept with C.M. look valid. All the transaction which human do all of them based
on some cost benefit analysis (Thomas, 1965, Blou,1964), whatever the services an employee
gives in the shape of transaction etc he will take return/benefit in return as without return no
employee works. Compensation is also a sort of transaction as an employee do a job /renders
services that is for compensation along with multiple other things. Then he thinks whether this
reward is based on justice. No employee will give services without reward but question arises
what will be the mechanism of this reward. Reward is not only in the shape/form of monetary
term rather there are other kinds of rewards so components our discussion will be based on this
concept.
If we see Social Exchange Theory and same kinds of other theories the we have add economiststheories. Here is a popular model model which is called gift exchange model presented by
(Akerlo, 1982). The economist use the name in different term. It means that wages and efforst
are mutually reciprocal gifts. Until we add utility maximization theory the concept of reward is
not possible. It was challenged in the form of prospect theory but it is applied in the concept of
economics.

UXT0 workers have ulities for reciprocity. We combine utility and reciprocity for workers and
when we combine these two. Then this theory is completed against is effort. Whether he is
returned for his effort. It is based on two theories (SXT and UMT). When we combine
(______) (_______) (_____________) we see the elements of economics.
Equity Theory (Adam, 1965). We will base this within social exchange theory. Every individual
provide services on the basis of reward. If he _______ equity (E = R)
There are number of factors of efforts we use an element that is Job Evaluation(what is the
worth of that job on the part of individual). If there are two professional professors the reward
will be given to the professor whose is worth is more than the other like; Dr.Usman Raja and Dr.
Sajid Bashir etc. there will be lot of difference between their compensation rewards.
In the element of effort will be a problematic issue (Dr. Shoukat Tareen).
Executive Compensation: why there is a gap in salaries of CEOs. Here compensation is also
made with other.
Self outside Self inside Worth inside Worth outside
When these 04 elements will be equal then the elements of compensation will be completed.
Equity Theory: if there will be no equity then what will be its impact. There can be multiple
problems.
2ndconcept is in form of expectance theory (Victor Vroom,1964). He presented effort and reward
in different domains. He said that reward is in 03 shapes which are instrumental when:
1- Effort - performance relationship (E-P relationship)2- Performance - Reward relationship (P.R relationship)3- Rewardgoals relationship (R-G)

1-) E = P relationship: With this effort whether your will able to achieve this goal with your
ffort / skill. If answer is yes then you will go to towards 2nd type. If there will be No the
answer will be different and effort will become Zero.
2-) Performance Reward relationship: Reward again is subjective in nature. If you
perform according to reward you get. Here reward will be in the context of organization. How
organization is giving compensation. Here reward matters in shape of monetary term as if
organization will promote you then you will do more effort and if not you will stop doing effort.
3-) Reward Goals relationship. Nature of the reward is important factor. One has to
compare it with his / her personal goals. If these are match your personal goals then effort is
exerted and if not you will not exert efforts as these reward are not matching your goals then you
will stop working.
Flexible Benefits:
When you give target of job then you provide flexible kinds of targets to choose one of them.
2nd
Discussion
EconomicPerspective: Incentives by definition are scarce so problems start from here so
further their distribution will also be not based on equality.
Basis of distribution is differentequitable. Incentives have diminishing marginal utility as we increase rewards and their utility is
diminished.
Different incentives have different impact on people. There will be different impact ofincentives of different rewards.
Types / Components of Incentives:
i)- Material: These are tangible and material having monitoring values. For example;
transport facility, perks, salary, and medical facility. So salary is calculated on the combination
of all these elements.

ii)- Solidary Incentives: Their nature is intangible for example; Association with the
organization, status in Pakistan and. Persons working in Pak Army. So this is also a kind of
reward.
iii)- Purposive: Intangible but having some stated ends. Sometimes individuals are
performing such a job where they attain some objectives as they provide some mode or medium
by the organization. To take change in the people like teachers job, so there is sort of
psychological effort or to impart knowledge among the students. We can relate it to McCllands
need theory what need motivates individual to do the job. It also relates Vroom goal PT. What
goal expectancy is there to work? It can alsobe related to Maslows need hierarchy theory.
Then psychology and economics merge then this concept become clear.
Different other themes:
Reward / Incentives: In 1990 a discussion started (Shawartz, 1990). He said that to provide
reward in quantifying manner does not matter rather to provide reward in frequency mode
matters i.e. Frequency of rewards:
Target Reward
Activity ?
If there is change in reward they start doing effort for work and if he does not gain reward then
he stops doing activity. If we link everything with reward then utility of reward diminishes. If
every target is linked with reward then activity focus will be reward only and in case reward is
not there then effort will be zero.
Cognitive Evaluation Theory (Desis Ryan,1975). His first theory was self-determination theory.He gave two components:
Motivation Intrinsic and Extrinsic:
Motivation is based on these rewards, for example; in an experiment a group of students was
given a puzzle to solve it with extrinsic motivation. First there was an attachment of intrinsic

motivation without reward and in the 2nd experiment a reward was also given i.e. extrinsic
motivation was included. Now their concentration shifted from intrinsic (job) to extrinsic
motivation (dollar).
So whatever you are serving somewhere for intrinsic motivation and if extrinsic reward is
included in it the ultimately the ration of job is decreased and level of motivation is also
decreased.
He (Schward) says that the people who were doing job for intrinsic motivation they have also
started thinking of extrinsic motivation. So when you will stop giving extrinsic reward the ration
of intrinsic rewards also diminishes. So, reward in shape of salary increase in not solution of
every problem as sometimes intrinsic motivation starts diminishing.
Titmuss (1970), he developed an interesting concept. He said that to donate blood requires some
intrinsic motivation like; to save life of someone. So he added monetary incentives to the donator
of blood. Now Titmus gained result that now blood donators have decreased.
Solow (1971) & Ashon (1971) they challenged it that when you add incentive of extrinsic
motivation (Monetary incentive) then intrinsic motivation is decreased.
Motivation Crowding Theory (Frey & Jegen,2001):
If crowding effects linked with inner desire and motivation and increase the extrinsic rewards,
the overall performance or outcome will decline. In this theory people do look intrinsic
motivation side by side extrinsic motivation
Welfare State:
Shelter, basic needs are the responsibility of state
Popular Background
Change in preference Model: It is based on the concept of Yarks and Dadson low:

Wages
Hours worked
With the increase of hours wages are also increasing but after a certain period wages are
increasing but output are decreasing. For satisfaction of job extrinsic motivation should be
adequate if they are less it means you give little extrinsic factors rather is because of intrinsic
factors.

Compensation Management
Compensation and Reward Management
During the last 10 to 15 years lot of study was conducted on this topic. In this topic we have to
near it with Strategic HR. What are the components in SHRM which differentiate Tradition
Reward with Compensation management? What are the components where organizations
strategy and its reward are linked and then organization use it.
Employees Stock Ownership Reward (ESOPS)
For example in formal organizations there are ESOPS (Employee stock Ownership Plans) and
what is the basic philosophy that the reward (like; profit, bonus) which the organization has pay
to its employee annually be paid to him from the organizations stock. In this way there will be
the present of a component of ownership. As much as the organizations stock will increase theemployees stock will also increase like profit earning etc. Now basically as much as the
involvement of the employee is increasing with the organization, its mission or ultimately their
strategies in the same way the stocks of the employee are also increasing. As, we have studied an
important component in SHRM where the objectives of organization and objectives of
employees have to be aligned in the same direction.
As much as employee passes his time in the organization his stocks also increase and his
involvement in the organizations mission, objectives, strategy and profitability also increases.
Although this is a type of reward or compensation but the employees involvement and interest
with the activities of the organization also increase. He considers that if organization will earn
more he will also enjoy its benefit. Now his effort level with the objectives of the organization
increases. This is now a kind of win-win situation
