The "rewards-personal goals" link in expectancy theory refers to the belief that if someone performs well, they will receive rewards that align with their personal goals. In this scenario, Sally believes that she could get the production manager job on a later shift, but chooses not to apply because the reward (the job) does not align with her personal goal of working during the day.
