Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who tends to volunteer and why? What causes attract certain types of volunteers? What motivates people to volunteer? How can volunteers be persuaded to continue their service? Making use of a broad range of survey information to offer a detailed portrait of the volunteer in America, Volunteers provides an important resource for everyone who works with volunteers or is interested in their role in contemporary society. Mark A. Musick and John Wilson address issues of volunteer motivation by focusing on individuals' subjective states, their available resources, and the influence of gender and race. In a section on social context, they reveal how volunteer work is influenced by family relationships and obligations through the impact of schools, churches, and communities. They consider cross-national differences in volunteering and historical trends, and close with consideration of the research on the organization of volunteer work and the consequences of volunteering for the volunteer.

Book excerpt: The rate of volunteering in the U.S. remains low in spite of the many positive benefits that volunteering yields. Prior research has suggested various theories to help explain motivation to volunteer. Nonetheless, none of the theories have been both comprehensive and specific enough to allow for their practical application in recruitment efforts or campaigns to increase motivations to volunteer. The purpose of the current study was to test a comprehensive model of volunteer motivation by integrating the Volunteering Functions Inventory into the Theory of Planned Behavior as behavioral and normative beliefs that influence attitudes and subjective norms. The hypothesized model also included control beliefs, which influence perceived behavioral control. The data were analyzed using latent variable path analysis and partially supported the hypothesized model. Implications for future research, policy makers, and volunteering organizations are discussed.

This book was released on 2015-10-29 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volunteering and its nonprofit organizations have commonly been analyzed in economic terms, with volunteering being referred to as "unpaid (productive) work". This economic definition has been around far longer than that of volunteering conceived of as leisure, which is discussed as the volitional definition. By means of a lengthy literature review, this book sets out the theoretical and empirical contributions of the serious leisure perspective to understanding volunteer motivation. This second approach began more than 40 years ago. It answers the key motivational question of why people engage in unpaid productive work, laborious or not. Since in this conception payment in cash or in kind is not an incentive to perform such work, what encourages people to volunteer? The serious leisure perspective, unlike mainstream economics, can shed considerable light on this question.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows managers how to identify opportunities for increasing productivity by enhancing commitment and provides tools for building a high-performing team. More than ever, senior and frontline managers are tasked with the development and maintenance of highly productive teams—a formidable challenge in all situations. Organizational directives for "lean," highly responsive, change-adaptive workforces have created an environment in which every aspect of productivity must be examined and improved in the quest to meet increasingly competitive global goals. About 30 percent of productivity is lost from knowledge workers who withhold undetected discretionary effort because managers fail to tap into motivation dynamics that impact the level of individual and team commitment. This book gives managers the tools they need to motivate their teams to deliver significantly better results. Readers of Motivation: The Manager's Key to Closing the Commitment Gap will gain a foundational understanding of motivation from theoretical, experimental, and anecdotal perspectives and identify key areas of potential untapped productivity. The book explores the changing workforce values, economic pressures, and the revised compact between employers and employees that create the commitment gap that results in untapped productivity. Managers will see how to go through a diagnostic and relationship-building process that creates powerful and productive dialogues, resolves conflict, and pinpoints behaviors and identifies tools to build a fully committed, high-performing team.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many organizations, recruiting and maintaining a core group of dedicated volunteers spells the difference between success and failure. But very little research has been done to find out what motivates people to volunteer, how to recruit volunteers, and how to nurture their dedication. Enhancing the Volunteer Experience reveals, from the perspective of the volunteer, how management can foster – or impede – the growth of high-quality, long-lived volunteer programs, and how to ensure that volunteering remains a dynamic force that generates social change. Drawing on a four-year study of volunteers in a variety of fields and extensive interviews with 180 people, Ilsey provides nonprofit managers with the insights, skills, and strategies they need to recruit and retain committed volunteers, and to make the volunteer experience rich, rewarding, and productive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Research of the past few decades has provided insight into the motivations of why volunteers work without paid compensation. In addition to improving upon the process of recruitment and retention, knowing more about why volunteers choose to work there can give an entity an opportunity to know how to better serve the needs of their volunteers. The purpose of the research was to explore the application of a Functions Inventory given to volunteers at the Science Learning Center located in the College of Natural Science and Mathematics on the campus of the California State University at Long Beach, CA. Volunteers who worked there were asked to respond to a survey that would serve to help the Science Learning Center understand their personal reasons (motivations) and about their experiences they had while being an unpaid volunteer. In addition to the survey, some of those same people responded to a telephone interview designed using data that was collected from the surveys. The results showed that college students were interested in volunteering mostly to better consider a career choice they were thinking of pursuing and/or to use the position for job experience. Other questions were asked specifically about their experiences volunteering at the Science Learning Center. This gave insight as to practical reasons why a volunteer remained at the position for a particular length of time such as the fact that the volunteers in this particular place were more likely to be considering becoming educators and were interested in the position because it involved working with children.
