Answer to Question 2

The MRT states that the relationship between supervisor and employee is enhanced when a good re-ward exchange occurs between them. For example, the supervisor may provide the employee with the freedom to work with minimum supervision, personal recognition, and involvement in decision making (all are ways to help the employee meet self-fulfillment needs according to Maslow). In return, the employee may provide high personal productivity, dependability, and cooperation with co-workers. When such an exchange takes place, both parties benefit.
