Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2024/Bottom-line mentality and motivation

Initial suggestions

@Biancaguina: Thanks for tackling this topic. Some initial suggestions:

• Check out other related chapters and see how you can build on, link to, and integrate with that work:
  • Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Leadership
  • Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Productivity
  • Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Work
• Also search past book chapters for related topics
• For the topic development, consider:
  • What psychological theory(ies) can help to understand and explain this topic?
  • What is the main research in this area?
• Let me know if I can do anything else to support the development of this chapter.

Case study

Hi @Biancaguina - you've done a really great job!

You mentioned that you were looking into case studies - You might be able to look at the way HP approached leadership. You can find a link here to a forbes article here which speaks about it a bit more in detail - but in short, when they split in 2015, they prioritised leadership, including diversity.

Theres some other case studies here on linked in - like a CEO implementing mindfulness practices in the workplace, and that "Paying Positive Attention to Employees Can Improve The Bottom Line".

Goodluck with it - looking forward to reading!

Topic development feedback

The topic development submission has been reviewed according to the marking criteria. Written feedback is below, plus see the general feedback page. Please also check the page history for changes made whilst reviewing the chapter plan. Responses to this feedback can be made by starting a new section below and/or contacting the reviewer. Marks are available via UCLearn. Marks are based on the latest version before the due date.

1. Title The title is correctly worded and formatted 2. Headings See earlier comment about Heading casing Excellent – Well developed 3-level heading structure. Meaningful headings clearly relate directly to the core topic. I think you could be probably drop the 3rd level of heading, to avoid being overly complicated. The 2-level heading structure has sufficient depth. The Enron case study probably doesn't warrant a separate heading, but it could be usefully incorporated into the most relevant other section Consider adopting closer alignment between the sub-title, focus questions, and top-level headings 3. Overview Excellent - Scenario, image, evocative description of the problem/topic, relevant psychological theory/research, and focus questions A scenario or case study is presented in a feature box at the start of this section Add an image to the scenario or case study to help attract reader interest A brief, evocative description of the problem/topic is provided Focus questions are well developed, but consider alignment between the focus questions and top-level headings 4. Key points Excellent – key points are well developed for each section, with relevant citations For sections which include sub-sections, include the key points for an overview paragraph prior to branching into the sub-headings As you get to know the literature better, you might find general motivational theories (such as Maslow's hierarchy of needs to be less relevant), so be prepared to let go of more general material in favour of more specific material Probably theory-strong and research-weak at the moment; strive for an integrated balance (see marking criteria) Direct quotes need page numbers (APA style) – even better, write in your own words Conclusion (the most important section): Under developed 5. Figure Excellent - A relevant figure is presented, captioned, and cited Make sure to cite all figures (e.g., see Figure 1) - note capitalisation Consider increasing image size for diagrams with text from to make it easier to view 6= Promising use of in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to other relevant book chapters Promising use of example(s)/case study(ies) Promising use of quiz question(s) Also consider using one or more tables to summarise key information 6. Learning feature No comment 7. References Good Needs copyediting Are there any systematic reviews about this topic? For APA referencing style, check and correct: capitalisation italicisation doi formatting make doi hyperlinks active (i.e., clickable) page numbers should be separated by an en-dash (–) rather than a hyphen (-) 8. Resources See also Excellent External links Very good Move academic peer-reviewed sources into References and cite 9. User page Excellent – used effectively Excellent description about self provided Add description about self Consider linking to your eportfolio page and/or any other professional online profile or resume such as LinkedIn. This is not required, but it can be useful to interlink your professional networks. Link provided to book chapter 10. Social contribution One type of contribution (direct edit) made without direct links to evidence of changes How to make other types of contributions and how to provide direct links to was covered in Tutorial 03. Looking ahead to the book chapter submission, see more about how to make social contributions.
