Goal Setting and Job Enrichment: An Integrative Approach to Job Design.

摘要

Productivity and Job Satisfaction are two dominant concerns of managers. One approach to designing jobs so that both of these outcomes can result is to combine job enrichment and goal setting. However, little is known concerning the interaction between these two major techniques. This paper reviews the empirical literature relating goal setting and job enrichment. The interaction of job characteristics, individual differences, and organizational characteristics are reviewed and a set of hypothesized relationships are proposed.
