Recenzje

"On balance, Work Motivation is a significant contribution, for at least two reasons. First, its broad international scope provides a relatively rare assessment of the generality of the human phenomena related to the meaning of work, the desire to work, and the importance of work throughout large parts of the world. North American readers have not been exposed to enough research and theory of such cosmopolitan scope in the past. Second, this book provides further justification for the statement I published nearly a decade ago (Pinder, 1984) that goal setting is the most viable and -- now I would add -- vibrant approach to understanding and influencing the motivation to work. I strongly recommend this volume to students and teachers of international management and to those who are interested in a variety of issues related to the world of work."
