Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Specific suggestions for action are essential for a subordinate to know how to change their behaviour and improve their performance. Admission of the manager's role or punishment may have negative effects on the subordinate's motivation and morale, while a specific reward may be motivating but may not provide concrete guidance on how to improve.
