Motivation course
You will probably be happy to learn that this course is not centered on summarizing a dozen or so motivational theories.
While different theories can be useful in helping people to understand human behavior and design effective organizations, the scope of this course is not large enough to explore many of them in-depth.
Instead, we will focus on learning about and applying a few major concepts dealing with work motivation, performance, and organizational commitment.
Some of the ideas presented here may validate what you've already learned from experience. Others may contradict your current assumptions, beliefs, or practices.
Our goal is not to be definitive, comprehensive, and prescriptive, but rather to raise some important questions and help you make informed decisions. The key questions raised in this course include:
- What motivates people to do their best work?
- Is performance an indicator of motivation?
- What effect does the job itself have on motivation and performance?
- Why do people join and stay in an organization?
- How can organizations build commitment?
There are some basic assumptions behind the content of this course. They have influenced the material we've chosen to include and the approach we have taken to presenting information.
- The most powerful and longest-lasting motivation comes from within.
- The way an organization operates influences individual job performance and commitment.
- Individual differences must be taken into account when deciding on approaches and strategies.
- Every organizational strategy has advantages and limitations.
Library managers can use specific strategies to nourish internal motivation, encourage high performance, and create long-term commitment. Because people and situations vary, you will have to determine for yourself how those strategies will play out in your organization.
This course should help you better understand your options.
