Answer 1

Answer:

b) false

Explanation:

Vroom's expectancy theory was developed by Canadian professor Victoria Vroom in 1964. His theory was aimed that understanding employee motivation in the workplace. He applied the formula motivational force= expectancy * instrumentality *valence in determining the motivation behind the employee in his work. Expectancy which is what the employee expects from putting in more effort and how it can be rewarded. Instrumentality which is the role and contribution of the employee to business results and how it may be motivated. Valence which is finding out what the employee values and how he can be motivated using this.
