Title Understanding and promoting work motivation
Description Work contributes to an individual's identity and security and can have a significant impact on physical and mental well-being. Along the lifespan, people develop, learn new professional skills, build up work competencies and establish social relationships.
Work motivation is an important key to ensuring that these processes are successful, and that people are satisfied, healthy and productive. To address this topic, the seminar provides a comprehensive overview of the scientific literature on work motivation and evidence-based interventions to promote work motivation. It will clarify why people are committed to work and their professional development, how people manage their actions to achieve self-imposed or assigned goals, and how organizations can create a motivating work environment. In addition, thematically relevant practical exercises are carried out (e.g. to clarify goals and values, to develop successful self-management strategies) and students develop their own short intervention to promote motivation based on the literature.
