The future of compensation from a motivational perspective
9:00 AM - 10:00 AMAbstract
Compensation motivates workers, but why and how? I will unpack recent research using self-determination theory to provide an understanding of how different compensation characteristics influence work motivation, performance, and well-being. This new research is likely to shift how organisational psychologists and HR specialists use compensation as a motivational lever.
Learning outcomes
- Learn new insights on the role of compensation in motivating workers

- Design compensation differently
