UNDERSTAND PROFESSIONAL MANAGEMENT AND LEADERSHIP IN HEALTH AND SOCIAL CARE
Management and leadership theories
MCGREGOR X & Y THEORY
Douglas McGregor, an American social psychologist, proposed his X&Y theory in management in his 1960 book ‘The Human Side of Enterprise’.
McGregor’s ideas suggest that there are two fundamental approaches to managing people. Theory X managers generally get poor results, theory Y managers get better performances and results, also allow people to grow and develop.
Theory X (authoritarian management style)
People dislike work and avoid it when possible, therefore most people must be forced with a threat of punishment to work towards company and personal goals.
People prefer to be directed, avoid responsibility, unambitious and requires security above all else.
Theory Y (participative management style)
Effort in work is as natural as work and play.
People will apply self-control and self-direction in the pursuit of organisational objectives, without external control or the threat of punishment.
People usually accept and often seek responsibility.
The capacity to use a high degree of imagination, ingenuity and creativity in solving organisational problems is widely, not narrowly, distributed in the population.
In industry the intellectual potential of the average person is only partly utilised.
HERZBERG MOTIVATION AND HYGIENE FACTORS
Fredric Herzberg, clinical psychologist wrote a book on management theory with research colleges Bernard Mausner and Barbara Bloch Snydeman in 1959 ‘The Motivation of Work’.
Satisfaction and dissatisfaction at work nearly always arose from different factors, and were not simply opposing reactions to the same factors.
“We can expand by starting with job satisfiers, deal with factors involved in doing the job, whereas the job dis-satisfiers deal with the factors which define the job context.”
