NATURE OF WORK EFFECTS ON MOTIVATION OFINFORMATION TECHNOLOGY PROFESSIONALS

Abstract

The ever-changing environment of information technology (IT) makes special demands on those in the profession and those demands include remaining competent through some manner of professional development. The factors that contribute to information technology professionals’ (ITPs) motivation to participate in professional development are not well understood. Previous research has suggested that an ITP must be motivated before they will participate in professional development. The purpose of this research is to investigate the effects between the nature of work factors, task identity, skill variety, decision autonomy and task complexity, and motivation to participate in professional development.
