Bachelor Thesis from the year 2016 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Employee Motivation, grade: 1,3, University of Mannheim, language: English, abstract: The motivation for this work is a result of several factors. At first, the topics of motivation and work performance represent core areas in the fields of management and leadership with essential theoretical and practical implications. Second, various studies have been undertaken in order to examine the direct effects of motivation on work performance showing the high relevance of this issue. For example, the work of Jenkins, Mitra, Gupta and Shaw (1998) verifies a positive link between extrinsic motivation and work performance. Such performance improvements may be essential for companies trying to bet the competition. However, comparable studies examining the effects of intrinsic motivation on work performance tend to be rare. Thus, another reason for this present thesis is to close this substantial research gap. The topic of motivation has been widely studied from various researchers in several areas. It represents an essential part in multiple research fields, including the ones of management and psychology. Rani and Lenka define motivation as “a process that elicits, controls, and sustains certain behaviors”. Thus, motivated employees are activated to engage in a certain behaviour in an energized way, whereas unmotivated employees may not have any incentive to act. Ilardi, Leone, Kasser and Ryan (1993) validate a positive relation between high levels of motivation and positive work outcomes, such as job satisfaction or well-being. The importance of motivation becomes clear in light of the recent Gallup-study, which states that unmotivated workers lead to substantial losses for businesses. Until now, a significant number of studies have focused on the effects of motivation on well-being or job satisfaction. However, this thesis has a slightly different focus. It examines the effects of motivation on work performance of employees based on the self-determination theory (SDT) from Deci and Ryan (1985). Therefore, it distinguishes between two types of motivation, namely intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, which will be defined later. This distinction allows to separately examine the effects of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation on work performance as well as the interaction of those two variables and the joint impact of both motivational constructs on work performance.

In a current highly competitive business environment, having well performing and inspired employees are the main success factor for any organization.

This study was conducted through a mixed research approach with in both a descriptive and explanatory research design. A total of 80 self-administered questionnaires were distributed to the all staff members of the company. 77 questionnaires were returned. It was valid to run the data analysis. Therefore, the descriptive, correlation and multiple regression analysis were computed through SPSS version 23. The correlation analysis result shows that promotion and employee recognition positively and moderately associated with performance of employees. However, work condition salary have a positive but weak relation with employee performance. The multiple regression analysis revealed promotion (β=0.313), employee recognition (β=0.319), work condition (β=0.256), and salary (β=0.189) has a significant effect on employee performance. However, benefit packages have no significant effect on performance of employees. Additionally, the regression analysis shows, (R^2=0.579, p

Seminar paper from the year 2018 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Employee Motivation, Employee Satisfaction, grade: 1,3, University of Mannheim, language: English, abstract: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effects of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation on work performance within the R&D environment and provide practical recommendations. Substantial research has been conducted to investigate the construct of motivation and to validate its impact on core business outcomes within varying environments. According to Rani and Lenka (2012), the motivational process affects an individual’s strength and persistence of behaviour. Thus, motivated individuals are activated to behave in a more creative, productive and persistent way. Prevailing literature validates this positive effect. For example, Deci and Ryan (2008a) argue that there is a significant link between motivation and positive work-related outcomes, such as psychological well-being and work performance. Considering this convincing evidence, further research tried to investigate this relationship within varying settings. An area that has aroused major attention is the R&D environment. Within this context managers face several obstacles in establishing high levels of motivation. Clarke (2002) mentions, for example, the differing values and expectations of R&D specialists, the uncertainty of outcomes and the difficulty in measuring the results. For high levels of motivation and performance to occur, managers need to respond to the needs of the R&D professionals without losing sight of the company’s major objectives. Based on the work of Deci, Vallerand, Pelletier and Ryan (1991) and their distinction between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, studies in the R&D management literature validate the importance of both motivational constructs within this context. However, in practice, organizations like BMW may be incentivized to primarily focus on extrinsic rewards. Extrinsic incentive systems, such as salary increases or bonuses, can easily be established, fairly measured and provide a clear link between the employees’ monetary motives and the organizations objectives. Further, intrinsic motivation may be neglected due to difficulties and increased efforts of implementing such incentives. As a result of this neglect of their workers' intrinsic needs and desires, the motivation within the R&D department and in turn the work performance may decline.

Book Description
The New York Times bestseller that gives readers a paradigm-shattering new way to think about motivation from the author of When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing Most people believe that the best way to motivate is with rewards like money—the carrot-and-stick approach. That's a mistake, says Daniel H. Pink (author of To Sell Is Human: The Surprising Truth About Motivating Others). In this provocative and persuasive new book, he asserts that the secret to high performance and satisfaction-at work, at school, and at home—is the deeply human need to direct our own lives, to learn and create new things, and to do better by ourselves and our world. Drawing on four decades of scientific research on human motivation, Pink exposes the mismatch between what science knows and what business does—and how that affects every aspect of life. He examines the three elements of true motivation—autonomy, mastery, and purpose-and offers smart and surprising techniques for putting these into action in a unique book that will change how we think and transform how we live.
