Managing Motivation at Technocraft

Managing motive at Technocraft Lea Darrigade Ines Gyselinck Mary Sagala benzoin Seban Intercultural Management BS 1 Chri march on backhoros Lambridis I. accession This report talks ab bring out(a) the mesh indigenceal occupation shown by the proles in a sm altogether factory named Technocraft, de termined in the South East of England. It had slowed pop out the high societys function in producing richly-quality sound recording equipment. The problem has arise to high dig turnover and difficulties in recruiting saucily employees. It led George Or tumesce Newell, the keep abreast chairperson, to claim a consultant named Helen McKiernan to figure out the sources of the problems.In order to help figuring out the problem, George Orwell told Helen about his hypothesis of the lack of motivation in fielders is because companys m kiboshing which is in the below-average national unemployment are, on that pointfore most of the women workers, who work on the wiring, had no sincere reason to work since they already postu new-fashioned husbands who freighter earn adequate reinforcement to fulfill living necessities. However, Helen did not regard to conclude the problem there. When Helen had done her research, she effect out that the workers actually enjoyed their work, barely scorn to work for the company.In former(a) words, the problem that halted the work motivation in workers is the worry itself. II. Forms of incompetent management that haves to the lack of operative motivation. a) Un puffing economy on functional performance In a company, it is important to keep the blood among the workers, including the manager and chairman, to be commodity so that they can have comfort in doing their jobs. However this failed to happen in Technocraft. This problem occurred since George elected Robert as the wiring department supervisor.In order to boost the companys turnout, Robert ended all informal rivulet(a) practices and excessive talkin g among the women workers on the shopfloor. Since then, all the wiring workers have resented his presence. This made the workers to be depressed working for the company. Moreover there was lack of honesty in Robert, when he did mis collide with in recognizing two women workers, who were late to work, with Elena and Veronica, who were profoundworking workers in the company. Even though, he knew his mistake afterwards, his ego was too high to accept his mistake and let off to Elena and Veronica.This caused the wild relation amongst workers and their advisors, which then wiz to the slow mystifyth of working production in the company. b) Productivity rise vs. proletarians quits From this report, we can see how productivity and motivation show their positive relation. therefore company would do anything to increase the workers motivation. For example, in Technocraft, to increase their productivity, George initiated a program called employee morale-boosting to intensify workers motivation to do their jobs.To carry out a long-term progress in their work, there should be fairness and sincerity in all the effort that the manager do to boost the motivation in workers. For example, when George told the workers that they would bring rewards if they work hard until they can achieve the production rear of the year, however when the target was achieved, all the worker got was just tee-shirt. This shows no fairness to the workers. It showed no equality amongst the reward and the hard works that had been done. George doesnt want to increase the production exist by giving them much fillip or other reward that are much than equal to the workers hard works.III. What Helen &038 George should do a) Build good relationship among the low-skilled workers, their advisors and chairman In order to start a amend future working expectation, George should apologize for the inconvenience and unfairness that happened to the workers. in that respectfore, workers can be m uch convinced for a emend working condition that would happen in the future. This should be the initial step to be done by George. On the other hand, Helen can help to convince the workers, by telling them that her research would help get under ones skin their burdens to the managers so they can be single-minded immediately. ) Enact a better management administration 1) Be more apprehension with employees behavior In order to ameliorate the motivation in working, regulation conventional within the company should emphasize the comfort of workers. For example, there is no need to stop the out-of-work conversations among the workers while they are working because it would stumble the workers little comfortable in doing their works. It becomes more unnecessary if the works are unprovoked to do. In addition, advisors need to listen more to the workers excuse for doing their mistakes.This is the only way to pick pardonable mistakes from the unforgivable ones. It becomes a forgi vable mistake, if it cannot be avoided or there is lawful reason behind it. This would help bring in a better relation between the workers and their advisors, which create comfort to workers to do their jobs. 2) assume the employees who work over time demise but not least, the company should net an appropriate bonus wage the extra time workers. This has a big contribution to grow their motivation since there is an equivalent reward to achieve with the right amount of hard works to do.This policy would bring winnings not only to the workers, but as well to the company because it can obtain more productivity from the workers. Some people whitethorn think that this would increase the short-term woo of production. However the long-term profit would outperform the short-term cost. Moreover the higher(prenominal) cost of production can be cover by higher price of the products. These higher price would then move more profit, since the products would be produced more cause by the increase in workers motivation. Therefore, this idea would bring benefit to the company in the long term. IV.Effects of the etymons a) Do zero By doing nothing, the problem remains and the company may lose profits and portrays a weak image of him to his co-workers. But by doing nothing can accommodate positives shipway such as cheap in the short- term and avoiding the risks of making bigger mistakes b) There would be no more labor turnover &038 difficulties in recruiting new employees. subsequently all, these solutions would bring more comfort to the working condition in the company. There is would less reason for worker willing resign. Moreover, it could lead to a competition for people to work there.Hence, managers or chairman need to keep a management that benefits both the workers and the company. c) uprise a new management system The good management would automatically lead to better relation among workers, which then brings a better working atmosphere to work better. If this could happen, the productivity of the company would increase. On the other side, we dont know if the new manager will be better than the other one nicer, understanding and skilled. If we take this risk, it will take a bunch of time and costs and at the end we are sure of nothing. If the manager d).Pay the employees working overtime. It could drive the employees and would out perform themselves, and in any case bring a long term financial investment for the company but could get more costs in short-term too. V. Theory and Conclusion We can see that the way George s running his company would correspond to the Mc Clellands 3 needs theory. He wants to perform influence and control others (Npower). He is look for success and he fears of failure (Nachievement). hitherto he does not take conduct of his employees he does not pay heed to his social group.In conclusion George does not follow the right way, he should follow the Frederick Herzberg s theory, which means motivate his employees to do well job , respects hygiene in order to obtain job atonement from the employees. So finally the best solution for George and his company would be to pay more attention to the employees, make them feel good in the company, show that George is involved in the production process and moreover give to people the money they deserve. So it is a combination of the solution two and three.
