重赏之下必有勇夫？研发人员的工作价值需求与激励错位对创造力的抑制

摘要/Abstract

摘要：

传统陡峭型激励结构为企业发展注入了强大动力,但能否满足员工的工作价值需求,尚未有定论.本文基于神经经济学和演化心理学视角,以625名研发人员为对象,系统研究感知工作价值、感知奖励价值以及二者匹配与否对创造力的影响.研究表明,工作价值对创造力有积极影响,但增量递减;陡峭型激励结构偏离了研发人员的工作价值需求,导致激励错位;而奖励价值与工作价值匹配时促进创造力,背离时则加速破坏创造力.研究丰富和拓展了内外动机协同与有机整合理论;实践蕴意在于我们应把工作价值指标纳入激励范畴,以此优化激励结构,强化员工高级行为引导系统,从源头上激活研发人员的创造力.

关键词: 工作价值, 奖励价值, 陡峭型激励结构, 激励错位, 创造力

Abstract:

Hierarchical incentive structure contributes to the organization development. However, whether it meets the need of employee's intrinsic work value has not been finalized. From the perspectives of neuroeconomics and evolutionary psychology, this paper systematically studies work-reward value perception of the R&D employee and their fitness, and the fitness effects on creativity. The results show that the work value positively impacts employees' creativity and the effect decreases as the work value increases. Wilcoxon test shows that incentive system of the organizations falls obviously behind the needs of R&D employees' intrinsic work value. Furthermore polynomial regression and response surface analysis shows that when the incentive system matches employees' work value, creativity will be enhanced significantly; otherwise, it will be suppressed. This paper extends motivational synergy theory by providing a fit framework for understanding how the extrinsic reward may interact with intrinsic psychological needs to affect R&D employees' creativity. This paper also discusses managerial implications for improving the incentive system of business.
