Respuesta :

Answer:

Positive reinforcement ; punishment

Explanation:

Positive and negative reinforcements are two types theories followed in organizations. Positive reinforcement is appreciating or rewarding the employees for their good behavior and achievements while negative reinforcement involves removing an undesirable policy to instigate good behavior in employees. Punishment , on the other hand is an outcome of not behaving as per the norms.

In the current situation, providing steak dinner for employees behaving professionally is a positive reinforcement as it will motivate employees behave well in the organization.

Unpaid training for employees to fail to meet the requirement is a type of punishment as this is not desired by the employees.
