Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2017/Empowerment and employee motivation

Comment
Hi ALMLoom, Your topic made me think of this TED talk I'd seen by Dan Pink from TEDGlobal2009. If nothing else he does a nice job of raising the idea that monetary 'motivation' doesn't necessarily improve performance! U3012363 (discuss contribs) 10:37, 16 August 2017 (UTC)


 * Hi U3012363, Thanks for the link, I 've actually included this TED talk already, as I agree it is great support to the idea that intrinsic motivation works better than extrinsic, specificalliy monetary incentives! Glad to know I am on track with some of my ideas for the chapter!

Article and direct edits
Hey ALMLoom - great topic and structure!

Just read this and thought of your chapter: "If you feel that you’re “the boss of you,” at least to the extent possible by your job, you’ll feel more fired up to do your job and your work product will reflect this greater passion." Here's a link to the article

Also made a few direct edits (added box, heading casing, bullet points etc) you can see here - please undo anything you don't like!

All the best --u3122707 (discuss • contribs) 03:54, 10 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Thanks U3012363 for the interesting article! It really summaries a lot of what I have been reading in research articles very well, and I plan on using a modified version of the mini Intrinsic vs Extrinsic Motivation test within the article as a learning Tool for my chapter. Also thank you for the edits. The Key Questions are a big standout now, and I think the use of boxes is something I will expand in the chapter to other areas of significance!


 * Thanks for the assistance! --Alume (discuss • contribs) 03:02, 18 October 2017 (UTC)

Hi ALMloom, I am very interested in your topic as I think the culture of the company would have big impact on employee motivation.One of the biggest company in China called"HUAWEI", people in China like to called the company have “the sense of wolf spirit". Even inside of the company, employee are under the fierce competition and big pressures environment but there are still thousand of people would like to work for the company.So, maybe you can consider have a look at how HUAWEI motives their employee as one of your background research. --Rachel Zeng (discuss • contribs) 05:34, 1 September 2017 (UTC)

Suggested article
Hi, I found an article which might be useful to your chapter. It looks at the motivational differences between tipped and nontipped restaurant employees. They found (among other things) that non-tipped employees were more motivated by interesting work and praise for 'a job well done' than tipped employees. Might support an argument for intrinsic over extrinsic motivation in hospitality employees. (Curtis, C. R., Upchurch, R. S., & Severt, D. E. (2009). Employee motivation and organizational commitment: A comparison of tipped and nontipped restaurant employees. International Journal of Hospitality & Tourism Administration, 10(3), 253-269. Hope this helps! Best of luck --WJDHR (discuss • contribs) 23:12, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
