To understand how organizations function in modern society Role Motivation Theories examines four types of organization and what makes them work. The theories deal with the relationships between these organizational types and the role requirements for their key performers that follow from them, as well as the motivational patterns that fit these roles.
The theories specify a set of informal role requirements that are derived from the form of organization involved and the relation of the key performers to that organization. A matching set of motive patterns is then specified, one for each role requirement. If the role-motivation match is good, the likelihood increases that the role requirements will be carried out and that effective performance will occur. So, when a particular organizational system is staffed appropriately, it will run smoothly and produce output, and will use human motivation as its primary energy source.
In Role Motivation Theories, John B. Miner describes these theories in detail, the evidence supporting their validity, and any difficulties in their interpretation associated with differences in age, race, and gender. He also deals with the use of training to change role-motivational patterns and discusses changes in managerial motivation in recent times.
Of enormous interest to managers as well as to those researching in the psychology of work, Role Motivation Theories is the most up-to-date distillation of Professor Miner's work on motivation.
