Produktbeschreibung
Concern with the successful management of non-profit
organizations (NPOs) has become an issue of growing
concern to organizations and managers in recent
decades. leaders of for-profit organizations can
learn from their NPOs counterparts, especially in the
areas of motivation and productivity of knowledge
workers. However, rigorous empirical research
exploring management of volunteers working
in NPOs has been surprisingly sparse. One of the
reasons for this might be that we did not have
coherent, well-established frameworks for
understanding what drives volunteer behaviour in
NPOs, notably the level of participation or
withdrawal from the organization .The present study
applied a psychological ownership approach to
understanding volunteer behaviour in NPOs. This study
investigates the relationship between leadership
styles (e.g., taskoriented, relationship-oriented and
participative leadership style), perceived control,
psychological ownership of the job and several
volunteers work attitudes. Particular
attention is given to turnover intentions,
psychological withdrawal and senses of
responsibility.
