Group Dynamics and Motivation (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book looks at how Groups form, how they function, and how to motivate those within the Church Groups. An unknown author wrote that the church is busy raising mules. On the first reading hereof a person could be offended as no one would like to be compared to an animal. On reading further, one understands the author's comment. What he was trying to say was that there are a lot of people working very hard in the church. They are involved in all the activities of the church. They are the ones the Pastor always relies on to assist with specific tasks. But, the author claims that just like the mule, these people never reproduce. Once they leave the Church their work falls flat as they have not found someone to take over their task, or to fill the void that they have left. Motivation is the art of getting people to do things or to do things more efficiently or quickly.
Motivation is the set of processes that moves a person toward a goal. Thus, motivated behaviours are voluntary choices controlled by the individual employee. The supervisor (motivator) wants to influence the factors that motivate employees to higher levels of productivity.

Autorenporträt

Carl Davis holds a Doctorate in Missiology based upon research of Organizational Growth in the Post Modern Society.

I started my work life serving in the South African Defence Force first at the Recruiting Division, then moving to a Medical Command where I served as a Generalist Personnel Officer. For the last two years of my service, I was tasked with the Personnel management of the Integration process, inclusive of entrance and exit strategies.

After honorable discharge after more than 10 years in the South African Defence Force, I took up the post of Managing Director of a Non-Government Organization, established to uplift impoverished communities in and around Potchefstroom, while also appointed as a part-time lecturer of undergraduates (specifically on leadership).

Three years later I was appointed as Rector, managing an Educational Institute with 4000 students spread over 36 African countries. While in this position I had the opportunity to lecture extensively abroad and published various articles on leadership; with specific emphasis on motivation and group dynamics. I am a strong believer in utilizing a blended and integrated approach in all of the training (including the new material which I developed) I developed which included Leadership (within a Faith based community), andragogy, and Cultural Diversity management.

I am also a graduate of the University of Stellenbosch's Facilitative Leadership Programme (BUVTON), consulting and facilitating with organizations that are "stuck" (- Alice Mann 1998- ) specifically in the process of change management.
