You run an auto (motor car) repair garage and are concerned about the behaviour of one of your young employees. Jo has worked for you as a general assistant for almost two years and, until recently, was an enthusiastic and hard worker. However, a couple of months ago Jo seemed to grow increasingly disinterested. On a few occasions Jo came to work late and often appears uncooperative when asked to do certain tasks (such as cleaning the floor or making tea for the mechanics). You even overheard Jo telling another young worker: "I'm getting really bored here; I just do the same old thing every day. The mechanics and the supervisors never listen to me - they just treat me like a little child and boss me around all day. I've simply got to find a better job." Select theories from two different topic areas of Organisational Behaviour that could help to explain Jo's change in work behaviour and show how your chosen theories might contribute to addressing the situation. You should clearly identify and explain any specific assumptions you make in relation to Jo's current position.
