Dear Colleague,
we are pleased invite you to submit a paper to the 60th track:
Work motivation in the public sector: Exchanges with the Organisational Behavior field
of the next EURAM conference that will be in Rotterdam 2012, June, 6-8.
The track welcomes papers (work in progress or finished research) from scholars with diverse backgrounds eager to contribute to the development of an inter-disciplinary research agenda to investigate work motivation into public organizations in different social, cultural, political and economic contexts.
Particularly, the track aims to highlight:
1) how the study of work motivation in the public sector has evolved and what constructs it has been focusing on;
2) the latest empirical evidence concerning the outcomes of work motivation in the public sector with respect to the private;
3) whether and how employing people driven by PSM may enhance both the scope and the quality of public services' delivering, innovation and, more in general, public organizations' performance;
4) the set of institutional, contextual and organizational factors that may influence the development or the inhibition of PSM;
5) the way PSM relates to other facets of work motivation, job satisfaction, organizational commitment and other concepts related to the area of organizational behavior;
6) differences and similarities of employing people driven by PSM in different countries, contexts (local government, public utilities, state-owned enterprises, etc.) and organizational levels;
All the papers will undergo a double blind review process and accepted papers will be distributed among conference participants.
The full call for papers of the track is attached.
