MY research proposal



The purpose of leading a small team, organization or big company may vary, but regardless of it, a leader must find a efficient way to control the led. This paper will analyze how leaders in the 21st century can motivate their followers to reach the ultimate goals of teams, using not only newly found fact about truth of motivation but also examples of successful companies in the world such as the South-West Airline whose president leadership technique made it possible  to the expnsion of the company nation-wide. These days, it is a given fact that good motivation should not be extrinsic, which is created by verbal and nonverbal stress from the commanders to the followers, but should be intrinsic, which involves teammates active participation to contribute to the team. In what environment can the team be instrically motivated and how can leaders create such environment? Paarlberg’s article, “Transformational Leadership and Public Service Motivation: Driving Individual and Organizational Performancewill talk about how managers can take advantage of their employees intrinsic motivation to benefit the overall organization. Wilsey, Michael D’s article  “Leadership and human motivation in the workplace” will go deep enough to discuss what is it that drives intrinsic motivation of an individual. John Milliman and Jeffery Ferguson’s article  “Spirit and community at Southwest Airlines: An investigation of a spiritual values-based model” will focus on south-west airline as a successfully intrinsically motivated company.

  1. Thanks for sharing your research proposal :) You have a nice topic. Reading your post, I remembered the phrase, "One for All, All for One," which was one of the themes of my high school's dance club(my close friend was one of the members). I'm looking forward to reading your essay, and getting some tips to keep the members' motivation and make them wish to perform their best for the success of the team!
