Assignment: 
 
XLS was a renowned telecom company of Pakistan. XLS was losing its 
market share and resultantly profits because of intensive competition in 
telecom sector. The overhead cost of this company was higher than its 
competitors. To reduce this cost CEO of this company decided to downsize. 
He announced that more than 10% of the work force will be laid off. As 
many as 500 employees received early retirement. Although CEO's 
ambitious cost-cutting plans were aimed at improving the financial 
performance of XLS but layoffs are rarely painless. Those who retain their 
jobs often face new obstacles and difficult adjustments. They have to take 
over the task of colleagues who are now gone. Survivors may lose trust in 
the company and may experience "survivors' guilt" for being allowed to 
remain in organization, while their other colleagues have been forced to 
leave. Any rumors of additional layoffs only add to the stress, making 
employee more fearful and interfering with their ability to focus on their 
work. XLS must face the immense challenge of keeping the workforce 
motivated while creating a firmer foundation for profitable operation in the 
years ahead. 
 
 
Question 
 
1.  According to expectancy theory of motivation, how XLS's layoffs affect the 
survivors' motivation? Give logical reasons to support your answer. 

Solution:
Just take Idea Guys:

When layoffs hit, the immediate reaction of those left behind is often panic. Overcome this panic and anxiety by developing a plan for what you'd do if you got laid off, too. and at other side if we see expectancy Theory so, expectancy Theory proposes that a person will decide to behave or act irreverently in a certain way because they are motivated to select a specific behavior over other behaviors due to what they expect the result of that selected behavior will be.

We can take some Examples there as,
# f I spend most of tonight studying will it improve my grade on tomorrow's math exam?
# If I work harder than everyone else in the plant will I produce more?
# If I practice my foul shot more will my foul shooting improve in the game?
# If I make more sales calls will I make any more sales?

Now have Concept of Expectancy Theory and Layoff meaning in MIND and solve your Assignment
