Summary:

The purpose of this case is to facilitate the learning, analysis, and discussion of Herzberg's two-factor motivation-hygiene theory and to analyze an organization's successes in providing an environment of motivation and growth for its employees. Students also learn about and analyze the workplace needs and expectations of Generation Z employees. The case begins with a detailed description of Herzberg's two-factor motivation-hygiene theory, followed by a detailed description of Generation Z employee characteristics. After being presented with an analysis of motivation-hygiene factors at a major corporation, Garmin Ltd., students are then asked to discuss how well the company fosters an environment that is not only satisfactory, but motivational. Students will also consider areas in which Garmin can improve. Using this example, the reader can learn, discuss, and analyze the Herzberg's motivation-hygiene theory in the context of a specific organization to better understand how these factors can contribute to job satisfaction and enhance employee motivation and growth.
