Physical and mental effort at work is as normal as it is at rest and at play. Man will control and direct himself in order to reach shared objectives, meaning that external control and threats are not the only way of ensuring effort. Commitment to objectives goes hand in hand with the rewards obtained upon reaching them. The average person can learn not only to accept, but also to seek greater responsibility. The capacity for imagination and creativity is widely spread within the population. In the modern industrial world, the intellectual potential of the average person is only partially used. 5, record 2, English, - theory%20Y

[...] McGregor propose une théorie appuyée sur des hypothèses plus en rapport avec la nature des hommes et avec leurs motivations, la théorie Y. Elle se fonde sur les hypothèses suivantes : a) La direction est responsable de l'organisation des ressources de l'entreprise [...] afin de réaliser ses fins économiques [...] b) Les hommes ne sont pas, par nature, passifs, et opposés aux buts et aux objectifs de l'entreprise; c) La motivation, la faculté de se développer, l'acceptation et la recherche de responsabilités sont des caractéristiques humaines; d) L'imagination, l'ingéniosité, la créativité sont des qualités répandues; e) La première tâche de la direction est donc de créer les conditions et de mettre en œuvre les méthodes de travail qui permettent aux individus de mieux atteindre leurs fins propres tout en orientant leurs efforts vers les objectifs de l'entreprise (fusion). 3, record 2, French, - th%C3%A9orie%20Y

Conjunto de hipótesis propuestas por McGregor por oposición a su teoría X, que considera corroboradas por los últimos estudios y que aseguran una mayor motivación de los subordinados. Las hipótesis son las siguientes : el esfuerzo físico y mental en el trabajo es tan normal como en el juego o el descanso; el hombre se autocontrolará y se autodirigirá para conseguir objetivos que comparte, por lo que el control externo y las amenazas no son la única forma de lograr esfuerzos; el compromiso con los objetivos es función de las recompensas asociadas con su logro; el hombre medio puede aprender no sólo a aceptar, sino a buscar mayor responsabilidad; la capacidad de imaginación y creatividad está ampliamente distribuida entre la población; en la vida industrial moderna el potencial intelectual del hombre medio está sólo parcialmente utilizado. 2, record 2, Spanish, - teor%C3%ADa%20Y
