EMPIRICAL STUDY OF THE MOTIVATIONAL COMPONENT OF MANAGEMENT CULTURE AMONG SERGEANTS OF THE GROUND FORCES OF THE ARMED FORCES OF UKRAINE
SUMMARY:
In this article, the features of the motivational component of management culture among sergeants of the Ground Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are summarized based on identifying the main factors that stimulate sergeants’ managerial activities. We can conclude that the training contributed to an increase in the motivation of sergeants to overcome difficulties and avoid undesirable outcomes, which can positively impact their work productivity and attitude toward risk. All the changes that occurred can be categorized into components of the management culture according to the research model: motivational component – increased motivation of sergeants to overcome difficulties; increased interest in personal development, indicating a desire for self-actualization; increased interest in interaction with colleagues; emotional-volitional component – reduced extraversion, which may indicate changes in communication approaches; formation of strategies for positive refocusing in complex situations; cognitive component – developed a pragmatic approach to decision-making; improved analytical abilities, changes in perception and understanding of situations, contributing to improved analytical skills; operational (professional) component – improved ability to influence subordinates, increased leadership effectiveness; increased participation in management processes and task structuring; developed key management skills – clarifying goals, interacting with subordinates, and team building; positive shifts in organizational culture, particularly regarding strategic intentions, coordination of actions, and teamwork.
