Abstract:
Worker motivation is relevant to public sector leaders because motivated workers are more efficient and productive, demonstrate positive behaviors, and are happier. Scholars have focused on differing approaches on how to incentivise public service employees using extrinsic or intrinsic incentives. The purpose of this qualitative phenomenological study was to explore the value and effectiveness of mission valence and other intrinsic means used to influence employee motivation and productivity.

Abstract:
Förmågan att motivera medarbetare har alltid varit en viktig fråga i alla olika typer av företag. Ett verktyg som kan användas för att skapa motivation bland de anställda är incitamentssystem, både monetära samt icke-monetära. Det finns inget tydligt svar i tidigare forskning kring vad för typ av incitamentssystem som uppfattas som mest effektiva när det kommer till att motivera anställda. Exempelvis har en del studier visat att monetära incitament så som bonus har en positiv effekt på motivationen på kort sikt. Samtidigt visar andra studier att monetära incitament inte alls fungerar.

Abstract:
This thesis aims to address two problems that appear to attach to the model of rational agency that underlies Kant's moral philosophy. These I call the problem of experiential incongruence and the problem of misdirected moral attention. The former problem arises because the central elements of Kant's theory of action (the possession of and action upon maxims; the subjection of maxims to moral assessment through the Categorical Imperative's universalisability test; our supposedly perennial consciousness of the moral law; and so on) seem not to square at all with our lived experience of agency.

Abstract:
A key strategy to motivate proenvironmental behavior (PEB) involves the promise of monetary rewards. Financial incentives are intuitively appealing because they can increase an individual's expected benefits for engaging in the PEB; however, there is concern that incentives can transform motivations for the PEB. The purpose of this study was to examine the role of financial incentives on behavior across time. Specifically, I used an experimental design to examine the immediate effects payments on litter-removal effort (Phase 1) followed by effort after payments were no longer available (Phase

Privately owned lands provide a number of benefits to humans, including food, clean air and water, and building materials. Private lands are also home to a host of wildlife species and the habitats that they rely upon for survival. As such, balancing human and ecological needs on private lands is of critical importance. Stewardship is a term popularly used to refer to this balanced approach of managing land for a host of benefits. When landowners lack the interest, ability, or willingness to incorporate stewardship into their management strategies, incentives are often provided to spur greater

I start by considering a public good problem in which individuals can be intrinsically motivated. Even if the intrinsic motivation has a positive impact on the levels of public good contributed, it seems difficult to achieve the socially optimal level of contribution. When intrinsic mo- tivations alone are not sufficient to supply the socially optimal level, a principal’s intervention is necessary. The intervention usually takes the form of monetary in

<p>Background:</p><p>Companies are beginning to see the world as their market; not only to seek global opportunities but also to oversee the global competition. Although most people connect globalization to export and import of goods, the globalization process also affect the businesses distinguished by service.

Abstract:
Incentive pay systems are of interest to both researchers and practitioners as a way to improve employee productivity and efficiency. Past research has considered the design of incentive systems, the effects of systems and costs/benefits to employers.
