So we want to do just a brief review of those theories hear. Remember that learning theories are about how to get people to do the things that we need them to do in the organization. We especially need to remember how reinforcement and social learning work, because compensation is designed at least partly to reinforce learned behaviors at work.
B.F. Skinner said that if we give an employee something they want in return for doing what we need them to do, they are more likely to continue to do the same way, if an employee sees another get positive reinforcement for doing something. Skinner says that the person observing this action is more likely to imitate the behavior, because of social learning, in order to get a similar reward.
We can also use negative reinforcement because, you remember, it also causes a person to repeat desired action. If employees are less motivated because they have to work too much overtime, we can take the overtime away. Because we take something that the employees don’t want away, they are inclined to be more motivated. The whole point of compensation is to motivate employees, so we don’t want to de motivate because we are working them too hard.”
