In this unique book, Peter-J. Jost provides a comprehensive
economic-psychological approach for successfully managing
employees. Based on the analysis of the employee?s individual work
behavior, he illustrates that instead of treating employees as
input elements of production, and managing and controlling their
work, organizations need to motivate their employees to act in the
interest of the firm and in accordance with its goals. The author
considers the employee as the ?building block? holding economic
organizations together, and outlines how their personal
circumstances, behavior and working conditions affect motivation.
The influence of individual decision-making processes and
psychological factors on behavior in the workplace is also
discussed. Theoretical insights are underpinned by a range of case
studies, and the impact of inadequate leadership on firms is
highlighted. Motivation problems within organizations are evaluated
and potential solutions prescribed. This book will prove an
insightful and fascinating read for researchers, students and
practitioners wishing to develop a deeper understanding of the
myriad factors that affect the motivation of employees within an
organization.
