W​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​rite a 700- to 1,050-word analysis paper addressing the following: Select a theory from your worksheet. Define motivation, and provide a brief analysis of ways in which employees express motivation. Describe how this theory could be applied to two workplace situations you have experienced or witnessed. Describe how theoretical models of motivation can affect personal satisfaction and productivity.

At the present time, you probably recognize very few of the theories listed in the table, but your familiarity will grow week by week. Months from now, you will feel more comfortable with these 33 different theories. If so, then you can be confident that you are developing a sophisticated and complete understanding of motivation and emotion. When you know motivation theories, you know motivation.SUMMARYSimply speaking, motivation is wanting. People who are motivated want change—in themselves or in the environment. The term “motivational science” means that answers to motivational questions require objective, data-based, empirical evidence gained from well-conducted and peer-reviewed research findings—findings that are used to develop, evaluate, refine, and apply theories of motivation and emotion

Sample Solution

I show how the majority of participants interviewed experience ‘security’ as insulation from the impact of recession in the present, and how this is understood by some in the context of living in an already financially risky capital. We find an inability to conceive of change to their economic position in future and thus participants occupy, a constant present which accommodates risk and and the inability to secure assets. All participants use a range of self-sufficient strategies that allow them to maximise their personal resources in the borough and control their use of public services – distancing themselves from bureaucracy represented by Southwark council. They therefore embody the competition between private individuals that Foucault argues engineers the ‘most favorable economic situation’ (Foucault 1977: 286) for the state. Recession is imagined by some participants as a moral reawakening of the consciousness to the cause of civil society, but there is little evidence of this in formalised behaviours by participants.

Participants express concern over the sustainability of the local economy and whether ‘people like us’ are catered for. In these precarious times participants see their economic intervention as bringing equilibrium through safeguarding consumer choice. Participants define themselves against deviant consumers and markets. This includes those that use Rye Lane, a location which becomes associated with commercial inertia and misuse of resources, a market where supply is imagined to outweigh demand. In the same way they define against consumption in Dulwich, a location which is associated with decadence and hypocrisy, a market where demand is imagined to outweigh supply. Groups at both sites are understood as deviant- in the association of over-consumption, high time capital and underutilisation of the person. The local therefore becomes a way of exploring wider anxieties about provision in a globalised neoliberal economy.

Overall I conclude that participant’s economic imagination, particularly those who see themselves as financially challenged, reflects the public discourse of austerity used to justify cuts. However further data collection to expand the richness of the texts would allow further exploration of attitudes to economics and austerity policy. In addition further data collection on participant’s attitudes to the riots could be fruitfully examined in light of Foucault’s secondary form of counter-conduct, the so-called ‘absolute right to revolt’ (Foucault 1977: 293).
