Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:This work specifies motivational frameworks in a philanthropic context. With a special focus on the self-determination theorem, sources for increased motivation in an organizational context were depicted and evaluated. To differentiate motives, a combination of philanthropic and for-profit insights was used. The work project aims to validate both, the presence of motivational increasing factors in philanthropic institutions and how they affect one's self-determination. It does so by, paying special attention on the philanthropic context in sub-Saharan Africa and motivation in combination with sports to validate the assumptions. The current COVID-19 pandemic impacted the analytical process of this work project. There fore, it includes adaptions and limitations that need to be considered due to the constantly changing working environment.
