Nature of NGO Volunteers’ and Employees’ Motivation. Implications and Recommendations for Managerial Staff

The analysis presented below indicates different types of motivation of non-governmental organisations’ staff and involves the relationship between the type of motivation and other staff features. This allows not only for looking at the causes and characteristics of involvement in the activities of non-governmental organisations but also for describing the specific motivation of the various groups involved in the activities of the organisation and presenting profiles of these groups. Moreover, the analysis of motivations and characteristics correlated with them allows for drawing conclusions related to motivating rules of these groups, stimulating their commitment and selecting the management style appropriate for analysed organisations.
