...Why Managers Need to Understand and Use Different Techniques to Motivate Employees By Student Managers Motivating Employees, September 8, 2014 I. Introduction Managers keeping employees motivated is a problem in most organizations, because not all individuals are motivated in the same way. When individuals lose interest in the workplace this can cause problems for the organization as a whole, then the overall production and morale suffers. There are different techniques that can be used to help managers motivate their employees. Some of the techniques to understand are positive and negative reinforcement, nonmonetary incentive programs, award programs, recognition awards and showing appreciation. Managers can motivate employees by understanding what motivation is and by discovering what drives each individual by using different techniques to motivate each employee. II. Motivation A. Definition of Motivation Motivation is “defined as the psychological processes that arouse and direct goal-directed behavior” (Kinicki, Williams 376). Motivation “is not a one size fits all”, each employee is their own person and what drives them to effectivley perform while on the job is an important factor for managers to be knowledgeable about (Broder). B. Why Motivating Employees is Important Employees within an organization play a key role in how the company runs.

...PHYCHOLOGY "instinct theory" what is meant by instinct? Instinct, instinct means an inborn impulse or motivation to action typically performed in response to specific external stimuli. Today instinct is generally described as a stereotyped, apparently unlearned, genetically determined behaviour pattern. what is INSTINCT theory? The Instinct Theory of Motivation views biological or genetic programming as the cause of motivation. This claim means that all humans have the same motivations due to our similar biological programming. This theory says that the root of all motivations is the motivation to survive. From our motivation to survive, all other motivations emerge. And, as we act or behave with this kind of motivation, all our actions are therefore considered as instincts. A common example used to explain the Instinct Theory is that a human mother will attempt to provide comfort to a baby who has been crying all night and will not sleep until she sees that the baby is calm and asleep. According to Instinct theory, human mothers behave in this way because they were biologically programmed to do so; it is a mother’s instinct to provide comfort to her child. Proponents of this theory argue that this is not because of conditioning or learning, the mother having weak or strong female role models, being raised in a rich family or a poor one – it is all because of their instinct – that is, they cannot override the motivation to take care of their children. Problems With...

...these domains further. Clinical Roles and Approaches of the CMHC The clinical mental health counseling approach has been described as a continuum with healthy individuals on one end and severe mentally ill individuals on the other; consequently, everyone can benefit from clinical mental health counseling. According to Hersehson and Poser (1987), the client-counselor relationship is one in which the client is led to identify strengths and challenges, and develop skills with the goal of independent problem-solving, long-term benefits and future prevention. Clinical mental health counselors (CMHC) are trained to treat their clients holistically and to use diverse approaches to address wide-ranging issues, diverse cultural backgrounds and life styles, and community settings (Gladding & Newsome, 2011; Myers & Sweeney, 2007). According to Gladding & Newsome (2011) the CMHC will provide services in the following capacities: Mental health counseling, treating people with mental health issues including depression, poor self-esteem, anxiety, anger management, PTSD, suicidal ideations, troubled relationships, etc. Crisis management with clients who are in need of treatment because of a traumatic experience such as death of a loved one, a violent attack, etc. Possibly addiction and substance abuse counseling by possibly helping...

...PREVENTING OBESITY IN CHILDREN Preventing Obesity in Children Kindra Henderson Kristen Scott English Comp. PREVENTING OBESITY IN CHILDREN Obesity is a recent health epidemic that has dire consequences for America’s health, especially for its children. The causes contributing to this epidemic include sedentary life styles, caloric intake, and major changes in the eating patterns of American families. Among these changes in eating habits is the amount of food Americans consume, how often they consume those foods, and the types of foods themselves. Preventing Obesity in Children: Americans are the fattest people on the planet and continue to expand. According to a survey of adult men and women in the United States during 1999-2000, published in JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 30.5% of Americans are obese, up from 22.9% ten years earlier, and nearly two-thirds (64.5%) are overweight (Flegal, Ogden, & Johnson, 2002). Excess weight isn’t just a matter of looks. Obesity magnifies the risk of heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, and other ailments thus overtaking tobacco as the leading cause of chronic illness (Brownell & Horgen, 2004, p. 4). An especially disturbing aspect of this trend is that children are increasingly obese. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (2002) reports that the percentage of obese children aged 6 to 11 almost quadrupled from 4% in 1974 to 15% in 2000, and the percentage of obese children...

...be classified as a social, behavioral, or cognitive scientist. Psychologists attempt to understand the role of mental functions in individual and social behavior, while also exploring the physiological and biological processes that underlie cognitive functions and behaviors. Behavior Behavior or behaviour is the range of actions and mannerisms made by organisms, systems, or artificial entities in conjunction with themselves or their environment, which includes the other systems or organisms around as well as the (inanimate) physical environment. It is the response of the system or organism to various stimuli or inputs, whether internal or external, conscious or subconscious, overt or covert, and voluntary or involuntary. Branches of phychology 1. Abnormal Psychology Abnormal psychology is the branch of psychology that looks at psychopathology and abnormal behavior. The term covers a broad range of disorders, from depression to obsession-compulsion to sexual deviation and many more.

...Central Queensland University Australia | Challenges of an Australian HR manager may face in London | | Subject: HRM in the Global Environment HRMT20022 Subject: HRM in the Global Environment HRMT20022 Over the last few decades the number of expatriates is increasing worldwide. These men and women represent a very important asset for organisations which are developing new business across the world. These expatriates are generally sending abroad to develop strategies or resolve problems in the host country. Consequently, the organisation has to be informed of any issue that expatriates might face and affect the work abroad in terms of international human resource management (IHRM) and industrial relations (IR) issues. Deb (2009) define IHRM as ‘a strategic process of managing a global and diverse pool of talented people in such a way as to achieve aims and objectives of the organisation both at parent and subsidiary level successfully, follow ethical practices on human and business issues and be adaptable to local cultural norms and other human needs and aspirations’. And Dowling, Festing and Engle (2013, p.242) define IR as ‘The board field of study that looks at wider issues of work and employment’. The purposes of this essay are to identify and discuss the IR and HRM issues an expatriate from Melbourne could face while living and working in London. In relation to Industrial relations issues, the role of unions, employment contracts, regulations, visas, taxation...

...estalt Therapy Gestalt therapy is a form of psychotherapy that relates to the process of human perception and works on a basic concept of the Gestalt approach «The whole is different from the sum of its parts.» This approach in Gestalt psychotherapy describes the process of perception in addition to the psychic equipment in general. The Gestalt approach originated from research that was initiated by psychologists specializing in human perception which demonstrated that humans do not recognize objects as separate elements and instead organize the objects into significant totalities via the process of perception. The concept of Gestalt psychotherapy was then formally developed by Fritz Perlsduring the 1950s, a well known psychiatrist and psychotherapist that initiated an entirely new approach to psychotherapy. The name «Gestalt» means «form» and is derived from Hans-Jurgen Walter's «Gestalt Theory Psychotherapy» which is based on Gestalt psychology. Gestalt psychology relates to the interconnection of the individual and the increase in awareness where the individual's senses and behaviors merge together. Gestalt therapywas created to help individuals with problem solving. Fritz Perls noticed that the concept of individualism was a positive one but there was also a reverse side to this theory. The people who were looking for the answer to their hopes and dreams looked to Gestalt therapy as the answer which eventually became a weak point in the methodology. He added that for a...

...1 UNDERSTANDING HOW BIG DATA AND CROWD MOVEMENTS WILL SHAPE THE CITIES OF TOMORROW Andrew Leeson Pablo Alvarez Samya Ghosh AECOM UK 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 A brief history of crowd modelling. From direct observations to simulation In 1895, the French social psychologist Gustave Le Bon wrote “The age we are about to enter, will truly be the Era of crowds” in his book “The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind” (Psychologie des Foules in French). If we take the 8am train to go to work, if we walk through a popular street on a Saturday, or if we go to a big event, we can see Le Bon’s words as a prophecy that describes the world in which we live. Pedestrian planning and crowd modelling have became more important in the last decades, mainly due to the increase in the number of big events that are organised and the accidents that sometimes happen during these events (Evers, 2011). Nowadays, architects, engineers, transport planners and event organisers make use of advanced software and mathematical models to predict the way in which pedestrians will move through train stations, streets, buildings, or stadia in order to create safe and efficient environments. In parallel to them, researchers and scientists are developing new algorithms and tools to improve the accuracy of the predictions. However, the first studies in this field were just based on direct observations, and they set the starting point for further research. According to Baer (1974), a good part of...
