How much employee motivation is desirable ?

Abstract

Following the article in our March issue where PA Management Consultants examined a new approach to employee motivation, Dr. Philip Grant asks another question — How much employee motivation is desirable? Employee motivation can be too high — costing an organization more than it is worth and actually leading to output decline. Dr. Grant is a management consultant and the Head of the Department of Business Administration at Husson College in Bangor, Maine.
