I have always found Expectancy Theory the single most valuable insight into how motivation works. So, I am pleased to see that this is one of my more popular motivation videos!

I’ve never seen a clearer video in my life.

My mother used the Flip Flop Expectancy Theory. I could expect a flip flop when my motivation to clean the car was low.

This is the most clearer video I have ever seen in this subject. Great effort Sir.

I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU VERY MUCH ,WE IN THIRD WORD HAVE ACCESS TO GOOD STAFFS OF THIS LEVEL , YOU ARE REALLY THE BEST . I M FOLLOWING YOU FROM TANZANIA IN E. AFRICA

you really know the art of 'putting it simple' thank you

The best part of the video was the example, that actually made the concept stick. Thank you, Mike!

One of the best video i have ever seen regarding motivation !

OMG! Thank you BIG TIME. You are the only one amongst all the authors I have studied and the videos I have seen who has been able to explain it. It is truly said, those who know, know. Those who understand, teach. THANK YOU for being such a great teacher!! I don't think I will be looking for anyone else to breakdown complex management theories now. I have subbed. Thank you once again and please never stop doing this.

Liked because of the last line. "Keep learning!"

Simple and straight to the point. You were born to do this, believe me, I know.

Thank you so much sir!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love from India. You are just great.

Valuable and simple explanation. I enjoyed watching. Thank you so much.

blown away with your concepts and explanations. Just so easy to follow and understand. You are amazing!

Oh my God, I really love this video. This is very helpful for my AS level. Thank you so much!

That was so helpful in aiding my understanding of this theory. I will definitely view your others, as I'm doing a HR course, with the current module on Performance Management. Thank you!

Teşekkür ederim. Anlamakta zorluk yaşadığım bir konuyu basitleştirilmiş bir şekilde mükemmel anlatmışsınız.

Explanations are so clear and concise, huge thanks!!

expectancy theory couldn't get more clearer than this tnx so much

Thanks for the video! This was very clear and exactly what I needed to feel more confident to use expectancy theory to substantiate my masters thesis - great help!

My late parents would say clean the car this instant if you actually want to eat dinner tonight. I am 60 years old and recently decided to return to graduate school to study organizational behavior. These are really helpful videos.

That subtle explanation did the trick!!!

such an excellent presentation and this make to understand the Vroom's motivation model so easy to understand.

I am a humble and an aspiring manager, oftentimes stumbling to motivate people in my team...this formula seems to clear many of my doubts Thanks a lot Sir, let me try something out of it. Nevertheless always something troubles me is how much organisation would support me. I equate many times Motivation to employee is cost to the company and my leadership doesn't like anything spoken about money I have to balance something.

You know it when you see a passionate teacher.

This was clear explanation of the Expectancy Theory. I have subscribed to your channel for future guidance. Thank you!

I've always liked the theory but never quite understood how to explain the formula. This is an excellent video to demonstrate it with a simple everyday example. Thank you so much for simplifying it for me!

Thank you for posting this video. I have found it really interesting as it has helped me to understand the Expectancy Theory mathematical equation in simple terms IE, low expectancy multiplied by low belief in the performance will lead to desired rewards, multiplied by the low value employees place on the existing reward system, this would equal a low motivational force and therefore low employee satisfaction. I will be using this to help with the critical analysis of my next MBA assignment. Thanks!

Thank you. Great video.

Thank you for an amazing and very clear explanation. Great job!

This is so clear and easy to understand. Thank you Dr Mike

No words to express thanks.......hatsoff sir for this explanation

Thank you! You explained this one very well.

Love you videoes. As a university student, your videoes really speed up the process of going through papers and book chapters. Thank you

I like the humor there "no equation" 😂 Thank you so much! I almost watched all your Motivation topic videos for my report in Masters. Keep it up! From Philippines with love!

Thankgod someone explained my topic for my online classes report.

Thank you so much sir, for taking the time to make this theory so interesting and memorable

Thank you. I would have end up learning this theory for 3 or 4 hours instead . You saved me.

love this great for sphr prep

Thank you for your wonderful work and it helps me a lot to explain my XY Timeboxing theory

My wife is a nursing student in Haifa university. This semester she studies the course "System aspects of the nursing practice". Thank you very much for clear explanation of Vroom's theory.

That's an outstanding explaination

Beautifully explained. Thank you.

Rest in Peace, Victor Vroom. August 9, 1932 - July 26, 2023.

👌explanation level💥 Thankyou😘

Very clear thank you

Very Well Explained Sir ! The Car Washing Example is very helpful in grasping a clearer concept of the theory. Thank You !

Thank you Sir for the great explanation!

Great video and presentation skills! Kudos!

very clear video thank you very much sir

Now I will write better emails so others have incentives to listen my words more carefully. Thanks Mike

Great Video!!!

very good video, clear and motivating, thank you, a friend from Lebanon

excellent !

very clearly explained.

Awesome 👌

He could be saying absolute crap and I would believe every word. Good job, this video is really useful :)

Simple and clear explanation - that chain is going to stick!

great video!

Simply awesome

superb explanation sir

The explanation is excellent and clear. Love the example, it helps us remember well. However, can you please maybe include some of the criticisms and limitations in the theories? That will bring more overall and proper understanding about a theory. Thank you so much!

very valuable

Now every time I think of Vrooms theory I think of the car in this video going “vroom vroom” and that’s how I remember this ! lol Thank you!

Thank you so much

Superb Sir...👌👍

Wish you were my professor ! Thanks alot !

Awesome 👏

Thankyou for explainnig. Please keep it up (Positive renforecement - by B.F Skinner) ;)

Damn how good this explanation of the VIE Theory is. 10xBetter then in College😅

I have an exam on this tomorrow. Thanks for helping me understand 🤗

Thank you for passing my exam

Excellent explanation - great link to how it affects employees at the end as well - too often these type of video's miss that.

Thank you for these videos. they helped me grasp a bit the reasoning of some motivation theories. If they are ALL the best motivation theories, which one is actually worth it? or should you as a manager apply different approaches to different situations/ employees?

Nice

The difference between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation comes down to one question. (and an expectancy theory is the answer, but a bit different from Vroom) What is an incentive or reinforcer? For a Skinnerian behaviorist, a reinforcer is any event virtual or real that changes any attribute of behavior, from rate to intensity to form. For a biological behaviorist, a reinforcer is a positive change in a specific neurologic state that is embodied by an affective tone or feeling. For the Skinnerian, all reinforcement is extrinsic, and is justified procedurally. For the biological behaviorist, all reinforcement is intrinsic, and is justified realistically, or through a thorough understanding of how the brain works. Either perspective denies separate categorical entities of extrinsic and intrinsic reward. Ultimately however, a sound neurologically grounded explanation of incentive motivation resolves the distinction, which given our current knowledge, is no distinction at all. The concept of a unified reinforcement theory was proposed by the bio-behaviorists John Donahoe and David Palmer in 1994, and was independently confirmed by the affective neuroscientist Kent Berridge (who added the affective nature of reinforcement) in the same and following decades. Donahoe and Palmer proposed a neurologically grounded definition of reinforcement. Reinforcement reflected a discrepancy principle, when behavior is continually mediated by the activity of dopamine neurons elicited by continuous correction error between predictions and outcomes. Dopamine scales with the importance of the reinforcer, and is responsible for a feeling of energy and arousal, but not pleasure. The reinforcement principle from a Skinnerian behaviorism is still the guiding principle of present-day behaviorists or behavior analysts, but discrepancy principles are now core to single process incentive motivation theories in radical behaviorism as reflected by modern affective neuroscience. The difference between these two principles is stark in both principle and practice. Whereas a Skinnerian behaviorist is concerned about the effectiveness of reinforcers, a biological or radical behaviorist Is concerned about how reinforcement induces affect. To a teacher, parent, society, or politic, the effectiveness of reinforcement is paramount. However, for an individual, affect in reinforcement is of first importance. The latter is reflected in the recent work of Berridge, who emphasized that behavior change must be oriented to eliciting continuous positive affect, which is epitomized by an active and meaningful life. Given this perspective where individual feelings are critical for motivation and positive affect or ‘happiness’, the metric for success for behaviorists is not behavioral control, but individual freedom, and a behaviorally engineered society that focuses on constructing the avenues that enrich the meaning or value of life, or an individual’s fully realized self-control in a free society.

Heey! real nice videos you got, it's helping me out a lot! I'm currently searching for a model to help me write my thesis. the thesis wil be a motivational research about young people from the ages of 15-25 about what motivates them to joing a youth center. I'm currently thinking about using this expactancy theory of Victor Vroom, McClelland's achievemt theory and Herzberg's two-factor theory. What do you think is the best way to go? 1 of these 3 of is there another better one? kind regards, Vincent

Less is more. Great teacher

Just send the car to a carwash! :D A little joke! The example does really work on memorizing the theory! Thank you sir!

Indeed teaching and learning at it's best. Q: What does the 4th child do?

Holy shit I understand this SO MUCH! I almost want this to be on my shrm exam because I feel like you explained it better than my damn book! Ugh thank you!!!

Not sure if you're having a stroke mid sentence with your pauses, but besides that good explanation
