Abstract [en]

The study was conducted on 72nd company at Livgardet in order to find out what motivators makes the soldiers stay. The material in the essay is based on an interview with soldiers from the 72nd company. The motivators are then categorized in the model Employee Motivation: A Powerful New Model. The model is based on human drives and I used as a tool for the analysis to identify lack of motivation in a working place. The study shows that the key motivators that make soldiers stay is: the opportunity to go on a peacekeeping mission and comrade/esprit de corps, the soldiers state that they will quit without these two essential motivators. Furthermore there are eight more motivators that have deep impact on the soldiers’ motivation to stay in service.

Abstract [sv]

Studien genomfördes på 72:a kompaniet på Livgardet i syfte att ta reda på vilka motivationsfaktorer som får soldaterna att stanna. Empirin bygger på en fokusintervju som genomfördes på soldater från 72:a kompaniet. Motivationsfaktorerna kategoriserades i modellen Employee Motivation: A Powerful New Model. Modellen grundar sig i människans drifter och fungerar som ett analysverktyg för att identifiera bristande motivation på en arbetsplats. Studien pekar på de främsta motivationsfaktorerna som får soldaterna att stanna är: Möjlighet till Utlandsmission och Förbandsanda/Kamraterna, utan dessa hade soldaterna slutat. Utöver dessa nämns ytterligare åtta motivationsfaktorer som motiverar soldaterna på 72:a kompaniet att fortsätta sin anställning i Försvarsmaken.
