          Kovach of George Mason University, published 
          “Strategic Human Resource Management“, a ground 
          breaking study of workplace motivation perceptions. 

          The difference between Managers’ perception of
          what motivates employees and their employees 
          responses to the same questions, even some twenty
          years later, creates a relevant roadmap for improving 
          employee engagement. Kovach's research and
          observations highlight employee engagement 
          opportunities.
