    1. Can you relate Mike Boyle's views on employee motivation to the need theories
    discussed in this class? If so, how?
    2. How does expectancy theory explain Ana's view of her work at Mike Boyle's
    Strength & Conditioning?
    3. Marco speaks about the pride he takes in both his work and the gym. Describe
    how his pride can be explained by any of the need perspectives on motivation.
    4. How do Bob's ideas about training and learning relate to employee motivation?
    1. Mike Boyle does have a point of constantly challenging his employees to be
    better and helping his staff help achieve their goals. He wants to see his staff feel
    motivated on their own, that way, he does not need to facilitate his staff to check
    up on what they should be doing because the individual employee would do it on
    their own accord, because they want to. He also brings up giving them the
    chance to perform well. This could be a Need for Power, giving them a position
    would satisfy their desires. It could also be a Human Relations approach where
    the needs of these employees are more than just money and that fostering
    favorable attitudes leads to motivation.

    2. The Expectancy Theory of Motivation explains that motivation depends on how


    much we want something and the probability we have of getting it. I think that
    with the way Ana sees things, she wants to live up to the expectations of Mike
    and that seems to work well with Mike’s way of thinking of finding what an
    employee wants and helping them achieve their goals.

    3. His point of view definitely makes sense that hiring the right people will work
    themselves out because they would not be forced to do anything. I think with how
    he sees things; he really wants to have people that are motivated on their own
    accord. This is because things would be so much easier for him when the
    employee is motivated on their own because he does not need to standby,
    watch, and facilitate his staff to do better. Hiring the right people, people who are
    motivated will indeed work itself out.

    4. Bob highlights that he really loves what he does, this is what he is passionate
    about. He sees education as an important factor in motivation. They ensure
    morale stays up by educating their staff, sending them to take up seminars and
    having staff meetings every week. They remain transparent with their staff and
    keeping them informed with the latest updates. Therefore, he may believe in
    Learning-Based Motivations. This could be Traditional, Contemporary, or Social
    Learning because they do send people all over the country, to all these different
    places to take up seminars and learn.
