Question

Suppose you are a manager of an organization. Almost 15 people are working under your supervision. All are performing above expectations except one of your line managers. After discussion with him you realized that the reason of his low performance is his view towards his abilities. He thinks that he would not be able to complete difficult tasks efficiently. Requirement: Which motivation theory can best be applied in this situation? As a supervisor what measures you can take to increase his self-confidence?

Explanation / Answer

I would think motivation with reward or bonus as a part of encouragement would do the best. If I was the supervisor I would increase his self confidence by giving him some allowances/performance bonus, taking his suggestions in important decisions/encouraging him and make him feel that he could solve the problems or tasks.
