Blanchard ( Hersey and Blanchard Situation)

 According to Ken Blanchard, People have a natural desire to grow, develop, and do meaningful work. The key psychological needs of an individual are autonomy, relatedness, and competence. If these are satisfied in a workplace employees will become highly motivated and more engaged.

The Blanchard model identifies a spectrum with six Motivational Outlooks:

  • Disinterested - the person finds no value in the project or task and considers it a waste of time.
  • External- the project or task only provides the person with an opportunity for more money or other external gain.
  • Imposed- the person participates in the project or task only because they feel pressured to do so.
  • Aligned- the person links participation to a significant value such as learning form others or having others learn form them.
  • Integrated - the person participates in the project or task because they can link it to a life or work purpose important to them.
  • Inherent- the person enjoys the activity and wants to participate.
Note That:
  • Disinterested, External and Imposed are termed as Suboptimal Motivational Outlooks and reflect low-quality psychological needs and self-regulation.
  • Aligned, Integrated and Inherent are termed Optimal Motivational Outlooks and serve to satisfy psychological needs.

Bird. It is often shown pictorially as a triangle or pyramid and has been described as a cornerstone of 20th century workplace health and safety philosophy. In recent times, it has come under criticism over the values allocated to each category of accident and for focusing only on the reduction in minor injuries. There is no shortage of data on incidents such as accidents or near misses. Some researchers have studied the figures in details and concluded that there appears to be a relationship b...
