This learning unit on needs and rewards is one in the Choice Series, a self-learning development program for supervisors. Purpose stated for the approximately eight-hour-long unit is to enable the supervisor to understand and list the needs that influence work behavior and devise ways in which a work system can be both productive and rewarding for the work team. An introduction provides an overview of the unit and lists unit objectives. Parts A through C contain informative material, activities and answer keys, self-checks and answer keys, and a summary. Topics include people at work, human needs, and job performance. Part D contains performance checks--an end check to be completed alone and a tutor check and work-based project. Part E consists of a brief unit review, extensions (print sources of additional information, such as units or sections in books), and a list of references. (YLB)
