Changing Behaviours with Changing Behaviours with
REWARDS PUNISHMENTS
Two approaches: Two approaches:
Positive Reinforcement Punishment
Pleasurable and increases probability of Unpleasant (for example, an electric
repeat behaviour shock) leading to decrease in repeat
behaviour
Stopping something unpleasant
Avoidance of an unpleasant stimulus Negative reinforcement
increases the likelihood of repeat Removal of a pleasant stimulus
behaviour decreases the likelihood of repeat
behaviour

Financial
e.g. bonus, prize, tangible reward
Non-financial
Feedback - e.g. performance, coaching
Social - e.g. praise, recognition, name and shame
Reinforcement can take both

positive and negative forms

Theory X Assumptions (Behavioural):
People dislike work
They need controlling and direction
They require security
They are motivated by threats of punishment
They avoid taking responsibility
They lack ambition
They dont use their imagination
a.k.a. authoritarian
management style Douglas McGregor
(1960)

Theory Y Assumptions (Humanistic):
People regard work as natural and normal
They respond to more than just control or coercion, for
example recognition and encouragement
They commit to the organizations objectives in line with
the rewards offered
They seek some inner fulfilment from work
Given the right environment people willingly accept
responsibility and accountability
People can be creative and innovative
a.k.a. participative
management style Douglas McGregor
(1960)

Hygiene Factors: Motivators:
Pay Achievement
Company Policy Recognition
Quality of supervision/management Responsibility
Working relations Advancement
Working conditions Learning
Status The type and nature of the work
Security
Frederick Herzberg

the likelihood of achievement.

Helps understand the reactions of people during change
Gain an understanding of why people react the way they
do - what is going on in the inner world
Can be a complex process - individuals may not be aware
of going through these phases
The phases themselves may not have clear beginnings or
endings
People experience a range of different emotions that play
out in their behaviours
The highs and lows of transitions are perfectly natural and
normal

Combines insights from other approaches
Focus on:
Importance of subjective awareness
Importance of taking responsibility
Significance of the person as a whole entity
Emotional self-awareness
Ability to engage with others on an emotional level
Addresses motivation and behaviour

Self-

Self-esteem needs
Abraham
Love and belonging needs Maslow

Safety needs
Physiological needs

Conditions for change to occur on the journey towards
becoming a person:
Genuineness and congruence
Unconditional positive regard
Empathetic understanding
Seven stage process that people go through - consistently
recurring qualities
Carl Rogers
(1967)

Key concepts when managing change at an individual
level:
Facilitating environment and stance of the change agent
(encouraging openness)
Surface and work through negative feelings
(get to the underlying issues and feelings)
Allowing creativity and risk-taking to occur
(opening up the opportunity)
Generating greater self-responsibility and choice
(increasing options and self-responsibility)
Carl Rogers

How the Gestalt Cycle maps onto stages in managerial
decision-making:
Sensation - our direct and immediate experience
Awareness - present, past, future, experiences, others
Mobilization - focus on specific target, foreground
Action - release of energy, take action
Contact - make contact in and with the outside world
Closure - resolution, fade into background
Edwin Nevis
(1998)

Edgar Henry Schein

(1992)

Change occurs in 3 stages:
Stage 1 - Unfreezing: creating the motivation for change:
Disconfirmation
Creation of survival anxiety/guilt
Creation of psychological safety to overcome guilt.
Stage 2 - Learning new concepts and meanings from old concepts:
Creation and identification of role models
Scanning for solutions and trial and error learning.
Stage 3 - Internalizing new concepts:
Incorporation into self concept and identity
Incorporation into ongoing relationships
Edgar Henry Schein

(1992)

2 principles for transformative change to work:
Survival Anxiety > Learning Anxiety
(Will I fail? Will I be exposed?) (What if I dont change?)
Must be greater
Must be reduced
than Learning Anxiety
Edgar Henry Schein

(1992)

A compelling vision of the future
Formal training
Involvement of the learner
Informal training of relevant family groups/teams
Practice fields, coaches, feedback
Positive role models
Consistent systems and structures
Imitation and identification
versus scanning and
trial and error Edgar Henry Schein
(1992)

When it comes to change
some people make it happen,
some people let it happen, and
some people wonder what happened.
