For this assessment, assume that your work organization has asked for your help in improving employee work performance. Surveys have determined that some employees struggle with test anxiety while others struggle with competition arousal, both of which prevent peak performance. Conduct research to identify:

Motivation techniques, such as rewards or praise, that can be used to manage the stress and improve peak performance.
