Problem:
As current and future managers, you must be continually aware of how motivated your employees are. We know that company culture, effective leadership, and social dynamics in the workplace are crucial to keeping your employees motivated. This chapter adds another potential dynamic to motivating your employees...the job characteristics model (CM).
Suppose you were in a leadership position and were tasked with re-designing the jobs in the department you manage. How might you go about implementing a job characteristics model to ultimately redesign and formulate jobs that motivate workers and lead to positive work outcomes?
