It explains the motivation and process of influencing it, i.e. motivating from many points of view and using scientific methods reveals their essence, positives, and limits. Based on the longitudinal research of the work motivation performed through the author's original Structured Questionnaire on Motivation, it relates the motivation and motivating to the core processes of human potential development and other processes or functions of organizational management. The monograph defines these relations in terms of symbiotic motivational spirals. In addition, the research attention is paid to managerial decision making and the quality of decisions taken in the process of motivating human potential.
