Diploma Thesis from the year 2017 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Employee Motivation, grade: 1,3, , language: English, abstract: The motivation of employees is an important task of today's corporate management. In order for managers to do justice to their tasks and encourage employees to perform at their best, they must know how to influence the attitude and motivation of their employees in a positive and performance-enhancing way. Since each employee pursues different goals and the company's goals must not be neglected, managers must develop a flexible incentive system in order to reconcile the goals of the employees and the company's management. But how exactly does an incentive system have to be designed in order to be able to motivate employees? In this book, the author takes a critical look at increasing employee motivation using incentive systems. To this end, he compares basic motivation theories by Maslow, Herzberg and Vroom, among others, and illustrates the benefits for today's personnel policy. The author also shows how incentive systems work. In doing so, he makes it clear where the possibilities and limits of monetary and non-monetary incentives lie in relation to the willingness to perform of a company's employees. From the content: - Motivation theory; - Attraction; - Extrinsic motivation; - Intrinsic motivation; - Monetary incentive schemes; - Non-monetary incentive systems
