Outstanding
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I included this in the literature review portion of my research project on retention and turnover. I enjoyed it so much after borrowing from the library and reading it that I had to have a copy for myself. Vroom does have some valid criticism of Herzberg's conclusions regarding hygiene versus motivation and the two-factor theory, but some is unfounded and even in err. But, in general, this is an outstanding treatment on work and motivation. A classic!
