The research explored unique performance enhancing or inhibiting factors
among Zimbabwean employees in non-profit organisations in Harare.
Two research questions were formulated: “Are there unique work ethics
inherent in employees in the non-profit sector?” The second research
question is “What unique variables motivate and affect workers in the nonprofit
sector?” The hypothesis assumed was that “the workplace performance
of employees in the non-profit sector is affected by and dependent on unique
factors that apply in the non-profit sector and not in profit sectors”.
The analysis of the research sample identified unique performance factors:
demotivation due to the absence of automatic promotions for high performing
employees; opportunities for the advancement of employees through a policy
of competitive recruitment and growth opportunities for local staff who can
apply for international positions within the organisation.
The hypothesis was accepted. The researcher recommended that non-profit
organisations use creative sector-specific approaches to motivate employee
performance. / Public Administration and Management / M. Tech. (Public Management)
