Zusammenfassung der Kapitel (Chapter Summaries)
The first chapter delves into the definitions of job satisfaction and motivation, drawing on Herzberg's "Motivation-hygiene Theory." It explores how intrinsic motivators, such as achievement and recognition, contribute to job satisfaction, while extrinsic motivators, like salary and working conditions, can lead to non-dissatisfaction rather than true satisfaction. The chapter also highlights Maslow's hierarchy of needs and its relevance to job satisfaction.
The second chapter examines the connection between job satisfaction and motivation. It argues that intrinsic motivators are crucial for personal job satisfaction and that recognition of achievements is paramount. Extrinsic motivators, such as salary, play a role but are less effective in maintaining long-term satisfaction. The chapter also discusses the limitations of Herzberg's theory and how individual values and expectations can significantly influence job satisfaction.
