The Leadership and Management section at the Amsterdam Business School of the University of Amsterdam (UvA) invites applications for a PhD position. We are looking for a PhD candidate interested in the topic of work motivation in the changing world of work.
Project description
Technological innovations – particularly those in artificial intelligence - change the nature of work rapidly and transform the design of work. Some jobs may disappear, some new ones may arise, and some jobs will be augmented through close cooperation with new technology.
Are you interested in studying the effect of technological innovations on jobs? In this project, we will focus on how jobs are changing, and what the changes in work design imply for employees’ work motivation, the meaning of work, performance, and well-being. We will take a psychological perspective, investigating the experiences of change and stability by those who are working in changing environments. The project aims to provide more insight into the implications of technology innovation for theory in work motivation as well as for work design and the management of work, by both humans and artificial intelligence.
What you are going to do?
The actual project will be defined by the PhD candidate and the supervisory team and thus requires creativity, self-direction, and passion for top-notch scientific research. The research will be in the broader field of management studies with a focus on work motivation, meaningfulness of work, and technology innovation.
You will work on several research papers intended for publication in high-quality journals The research group has a strong record publishing in related fields. The final results of the PhD project are published in a PhD dissertation.
