What keeps corporate volunteers engaged: Extending the volunteer work design model with self-determination theory insights

2018, Schie, Susan van, Gautier, Arthur, Pache, Anne-Claire, Güntert, Stefan

This study explores the factors explaining why employees internalize a volunteer identity in a corporate context. We do so by empirically testing Grant's volunteer work design model with a sample of 619 employees involved in CV programs, and by comparing its relevance with an alternative, extended model relying on insights from self-determination theory. We show that employees are more likely to internalize a volunteer identity if they can choose what cause to engage for and if they feel that the projects they participate in are meaningful.

The quality of volunteers’ motives: Integrating the functional approach and self-determination theory

2016, Güntert, Stefan, Strubel, Isabel Teresia, Kals, Elisabeth, Wehner, Theo

Volunteers’ motives have been differentially linked to various aspects of successful volunteering. Using self-determination theory, we propose that volunteer functions are systematically related to the experience of self-determined versus controlled motivation. This “quality ofmotivation,” in turn, explains why motives are differentially associated with satisfaction. We conducted two studies: Study 1 (N1 = 824) addressed motives, quality of motivation, and satisfaction; Study 2 (N2 = 323) additionally examined function-specific benefits and the extent to which they match volunteers’ motives. Overall, our hypotheses were supported: values, understanding, and social justice motives were positively associated with relatively self-determinedmotivation (RSM), whereas career, social, protective, and enhancement motives showed negative correlations. The relationships between motives and satisfaction were partially mediated by RSM. Concerning benefits, Study 2 corroborated these findings for values, protective, enhancement, and social justice. This research introduces a new perspective on the quality of volunteers’ motives—with theoretical and practical implications.
