SUMMARY OF THEORY X AND THEORY Y
Theory X infers that people are apathetic and have a tendency to evade tasks at any
time. Hence, workers have to be intently overseen and managed. They are rewarded
with financial incentives and threatened with job loss. By contrast, Theory Y assumes
that people demand mental work like the fulfillment of excellence at work and receive
financial rewards to boost their motivation, creativity and commitment.
Theory Y:
- Both can enjoy pleasant atmosphere
- High efficiency and effectiveness
- Reduce stress and boredom
- High commitment
- Strong connection
Theory X
- Work under high pressure less creativity
- Easily to turn into toxic relationship between manager and workers
- Time-consuming in allocating resources (closely managed and overseen)
- Poor commitment with the firm.
