C. Reassuring him that he has a job with MBSC as long as he performs well
Explanation:
By sending Marco to seminars, Mike and Bob are addressing VALENCE; a psychological value an individual put on another person, in relation to the attractiveness of individual whose a psychological value has been placed. In this case, a psychological value placed on Macro by his managers is the valuable rewards they would get from his professional development, rather than increasing his salary in exchange for high performance.
Therefore, they could maintain Marco’s high level of motivation by reassuring him that he has a job with MBSC as long as he performs well.
