Histheories divided employees into two categories.Theory X employees avoid work and dislikeresponsibility. In order to motivate them, employersneed to enforce rules and implement punishments.Theory Y employees enjoy putting forth effort atwork when they have control in the workplace.Employers must develop opportunities for employeesto take on responsibility and show creativity as a wayof motivating Theory Y employees. A third theory,Theory Z, was developed by Dr. William Ouchi. Itencourages group work and social interaction tomotivate employees in the workplace.

Traditional View of Conflict
The belief that all conflict is harmful and must beavoided.
The traditional view was consistent with the attitudesthat prevailed about group behavior in the 1930s and1940s.
The negative consequences from conflict can bedevastating. The most obvious are increasedturnover, decreased employee satisfaction,inefficiencies between work units, sabotage, laborgrievances and strikes, and physical aggression.

Traditional View of Conflict
(cont’d)
Conflict was seen as a dysfunctional outcome resultingfrom poor communication, a lack of openness andtrust between people, and the failure of managers tobe responsive to the needs and aspirations of theiremployees.
The view that all conflict is bad certainly offers asimple approach to look at the behavior of people whocreate conflict.
Since all conflict is to be avoided, we need merelydirect our attention to causes of conflict and correctthese mal- functioning in order to improve group andorganizational performance.
30
Human Relations View of
Conflict
The belief that conflict is natural and inevitableoutcome in any group.
This theory advocated acceptance of conflict as it cannot be eliminated, and there are even times whenconflict may benefit a group’s performance.
Human relations view dominated conflict theory fromthe late 1940s through the mid 1970s.
31
Interactionist View of Conflict
The belief that conflict is not only a positive force in a groupbut that it is absolutely necessary for a group to performeffectively.
This approach encourages conflict on the grounds that aharmonious, peaceful, tranquil, and cooperative group isprone to becoming static, apathetic, and non responsive toneeds for change and innovation.
It encourages group leaders to maintain an ongoingminimum level of conflict- enough to keep the group viable,self critical and creative.
Whether conflict is good or bad depends on types ofconflict.
