Grace Park, Inc. The management of Grace Park, Inc. (GPI) has had some challenges with employee morale and turnover, and the company is making some changes to improve things. The company is known for its risk taking and market leadership with many new products that solve today’s problems. However, employees, who come from many different backgrounds, don’t seem to interact much inside or outside the workplace. GPI would like to find ways to improve camaraderie among employees as well as morale, efficiency, and turnover. Previously, the company tried to make jobs more appealing by adding more responsibilities to each job description. However, this did not work. Next, the company decided to allow flextime, believing that giving employees more flexibility in their hours would make employees more motivated and loyal. This has been successful enough that some employees are now requesting the right to work at home so that they can address their families’ care-giving needs. GPI is considering a pilot program that would allow some employees to do that. GPI then introduced even more work options for employees. For example, management decided to group all full-time employees into teams to bring employees with different backgrounds together to learn from each other. It also announced a monthly party at corporate headquarters. Once these changes were initiated, GPI management noticed that the morale and quality of employees’ work seemed to be improving. The managers also observed that people felt much more comfortable with and tolerant of each other.Refer to Grace Park, Inc. The flextime GPI introduced is _______.

Garrison Enterprise Garrison Enterprise is a well-known company that has been around for many years. However, Mr. Jackson, its current CEO, has noticed recently that the company is not performing up to par. He has been watching the employees closely. Mr. Jackson saw that his workers do only what is required and that no one seems to go above and beyond what is necessary. He thinks this is odd because Garrison Enterprise used to have dedicated employees who felt a real sense of ownership toward the company. Now it seems that the employees need to be watched all the time just to make sure they are doing the minimum required. The company has always tried to help its employees through various measures, but recently these measures have been unsuccessful. Mr. Jackson also observed that the employees were not engaging with each other. They all seemed to be at ease with each other, but there was very little interaction. When Mr. Jackson asked his top managers to study the situation more closely, they reported that the employees were neither dissatisfied nor motivated. Mr. Jackson decided that things needed to change. He decided that the managers would reward only very good behaviors and punish anything that was considered bad behavior. While this may not be the best option, Mr. Jackson believes that it may work for the near future. Refer to Garrison Enterprise. Based on Herzberg’s theory, which of these factors was applied to Garrison Enterprise employees?

After their constructive discussion, Penny’s boss told her that she wanted her to go out on the floor that day and attempt to be more helpful to customers. Over the next few months, Penny began to help customers learn more about the different products in the store and often explained why the customer might want to purchase one product over another.

Penny now looks up to her boss and is very glad that she was there to mentor her. Refer to The Craft House. When Penny was brought into her boss’s office, what was her manager trying to explain?
