Answer to Question 5
Leader reward behavior involves positively reinforcing subordinates' desirable behaviors. This is important for leader effectiveness because goal attainment is dependent on individuals' engaging in activities that are beneficial to the organization. In contrast, leader punishing behavior involves negatively responding to subordinates' undesirable behaviors. This behavior is important for leader effectiveness because it decreases the likelihood that behaviors that will negatively impact organizational goals will occur.
Research indicates that leader reward behavior (reinforcement) is more effective than leader punishing behavior in stopping undesired behaviors. Moreover, punishing behaviors can have a negative effect on goal attainment (productivity, performance, motivation) in the organization.
