Fiona is a manager who believes in Theory Y of leadership. What does she assume about her employees according to this theory? A. Employees have to be reprimanded for bad ideas. B. Employees are self-motivated in their work. C. Employees need constant supervision. D. Employees are always ready to leave the company.

Answer 1

Answer:

A. she assumes that the employees are lazy and just throw in some random ideas when they have discussion meetings about their new product/service or an upgrade of the organisation's product/service. therefore since she assumes that they don't actually think to help give ideas, she decides that it is best to scold them when they aren't trying their best.

B. she assumes that her employees are responsible enough to find a way to keep themselves entertained while finishing their tasks.

C. she dosent trust her employees yet to let them take control without her being needed since she may assume that they aren't experienced enough or responsible enough to take huge responsibility yet.

D. she assumes that since they want to leave early all the time, they may not like their job very much and would want to get out of the company as soon as possible since there would be a chance that they would be stopped to help with extra work.
