Employee involvement is LESS valuable or successful when:

A) decisions are programmed.
B) employees are committed to decisions made by their bosses.
C) employees have the same information as their bosses.
D) employee norms conflict with organizational goals.
E) all of the above conditions exist.

All of the above conditions can contribute to lowered success or value in employee involvement.

A) When decisions are programmed, there is little room for input or creativity from employees, which can lead to decreased motivation and job satisfaction.

B) If employees are already committed to decisions made by their bosses, there may not be a need for further involvement or input, which could make their participation less valuable.

C) Having the same information as their bosses is important for effective employee involvement, but it is not the only factor. If the other conditions mentioned also exist, having the same information may not make a difference.

D) When employee norms conflict with organizational goals, it can create tension and resistance to change, making it difficult for employee involvement efforts to be successful.

Thus, if all of these conditions exist, the value and success of employee involvement can be lessened.
