Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Employee motivation and engagement are at the center of organizational competitiveness dynamics, especially as business structure and processes become flat and organic, as is the case currently. Management scholars and practitioners are calling for actionable insights, interventions, and evidence-based management practices to motivate and engage employees from time to time for tangible and sustainable outcomes. The psychological health of employees, including the promotion of well-being and prevention of ill-being, also serves as the foundation of employees’ performance and creativity at work. This Special Issue invites you, your colleagues, and your PhD students to contribute to this important area of research with fresh and innovative empirical and theoretical contributions.
