Reading is attached to the question for background on materialAssignment Overview

As in some of the assignments in this course, you will draw upon your personal experience for this Module 2 Case assignment. For the assignment, you will consider the topic of telecommuting and motivation. You will prepare a blog entry that discusses your own experience and applies the background material to the prospect of becoming a telecommuter.

For an overview of some important current issues in telecommuting and working remotely please read:

Peck, E. (2015, March 18) Proof that working from Home is Here to Stay: Even Yahoo Still Does It. Retrieved from http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/03/18/the-future-is-happening-now-ok_n_6887998.html

 

Case Assignment

In the background materials, you read about some very traditional theories of motivation such as Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs and Herzberg’s Two-Factor Theory. There is sometimes a challenge in applying these theories.

Begin with some personal reflection. Consider a time at work when you felt highly motivated. Apply Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs and Herzberg’s Two-Factor Theory to your situation. Think about what motivates you personally. Can you apply Maslow’s and Herzberg’s theories to yourself? For this assignment, you will discuss these ideas in a hypothetical situation in which you are offered the opportunity to work remotely, that is, telecommute to your job.

 

For this Module 2 Case Assignment, you will prepare a blog entry with the title:

My company has offered me a chance to work remotely. Should I telecommute? How can I stay motivated working from home? If I decide to work from home, what can my company do to help me stay highly motivated?

Your blog entry should discuss the following:

• What motivates you?
• How do Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs and Herzberg’s Two-Factor Theory explain your own and other employees’ motivation?
• How can employees remain highly motivated when telecommuting? What can they do to motivate themselves? What can the company do to motivate telecommuting employees?
• Will you become a telecommuter? Why or why not?

Your blog entry should be the equivalent of a four- to five-page paper. Also, be sure to use in-text citations and a reference list. For administrative purposes, please add a title page so that your assignment can be readily identified.

 

Assignment Expectations

• Be sure to address the questions presented directly.
• Stay focused on the precise assignment questions; do not go off on tangents or devote a lot of space to summarizing general background materials
• Use reliable and credible sources as your references. If you find articles on the internet, make sure they are from a credible source.
