4. Business leaders and human resource
managers consider the “lack of employee
engagement” one of their top priorities.
But why do many workers not feel engaged?
5. Without motivation,
nothing would be produced.
Firms exist to coordinate and
motivate people’s economic
activity.
- John Roberts, “The Modern Firm”
7. Technically, we cannot make people feel motivated or
engaged. But we can certainly set up the right conditions
that maximize the probability that it will happen (even
though success is never certain).
9. Is employee engagement about intrinsic or
extrinsic motivation?
Does an author write books because she loves the writing process?
Or because she loves the support and encouragement from
readers? Maybe a bit of both?
10. The CHAMPFROGS model deals
specifically with motivation in
the context of work-life.
It consists of ten motivators that
are either intrinsic, extrinsic, or
a bit of both.
11. The CHAMPFROGS model is
influenced by several other
models of human motivation.
• Two-Factor Theory, Frederick Herzberg
• The Hierarchy of Needs, Abraham Maslow
• Theory of Self-Determination, Edward L.
Deci and Richard M. Ryan
• 16 Basic Desires Theory, Steven Reiss
22. Managers must seek ways for
the CHAMPFROGS motivators
to become systemic properties
of the organization.
For example, laboratories and
research centers typically satisfy
people’s need for curiosity.
23. The goal of an organization is to
engage people for productivity.
Use your time to understand how
to make the organization a system
that engages people.
