MGMT 8025 WEEK 4 DISCUSSION

 1. Discussion: The Relationship Between Organizations and Employees
Every company has its own perspective on the relationship between it and its employees. The perspectives vary based on core assumptions. Chapter 6, in your text, compares two organizations, Apple and Nucor. Apple focuses more on seeing employees “as tools” to accomplish goals for the organization while Nucor is a company that believes its employees have individual needs that can be aligned with the company’s profits and goals.
Review this week’s resources and study the readings on Apple and Nucor.
Post by Day 3 an explanation of which organization’s (Apple or Nucor) perspective you think is more effective. Justify your position. Be sure to include the motivation theories that are relevant as well as Morgan’s psychic prison metaphor in your explanation.
