Motivation theories. William Ouchi’s theory Z. William Ouchi, the professor of the University of California, developed in 1981 the Theory Z, which combines the features of American and Japanese management styles. In the company Z, workers participate in the decision-making process and able to perform many different productive tasks. Such approach, similar to the Japanese company culture, servers as an important driving force for increasing productivity with simultaneous reduction absenteeism and staff turnover. The Theory Z underlines the importance of such aspects as work rotation, the expansion of staff skills, an advantage of the specialists of wide profile compared to the narrow specialization, and also the need for permanent development and staff training. In William Ouchi’s opinion, workers want to build friendly relationship based on cooperation with colleagues and employers. In the borders of his theory, workers needs the company’s support and highly appreciate the work environment, in which family, culture, traditions and social institutes are no less important than the work itself. These workers have highly developed sense of order, discipline and moral commitment to work hard. Lastly, in the borders of Theory Z is expected that workers will work with maximal output if management will support them and care of their well-being. The important presumption of this theory is that management must be sure in its employees. The Theory Z suggests the importance of development such as work force that would save loyalty to their company and prefer to work there for all the life. In that case, when employee grown up to the high management level, he will have a thorough knowledge of the company and its activities and he will be able to effectively use the Theory Z to the new employees.
