Answer to Question 1

In order for an employee to be motivated to perform desired behaviors and to perform them at a high level, the following conditions are necessary:
 Valence must be high: The employee wants outcomes the organization has to offer.
 Instrumentality must be high: The employee perceives that she or he must perform the desired behaviors at a high level to obtain these outcomes.
 Expectancy must be high: The employee thinks that trying hard will lead to performance at a high level.
If just one of these three factors (valence, instrumentality, or expectancy) is zero, motivation will be zero.

Answer to Question 2

B
