Abstract:
|
This paper examines the work attitudes of public managers who have had full time private sector work experience. Public managers with private sector experience report different attitudes when compared to their counterparts who have spent their entire careers in the public sector. Though private sector work experience negatively correlates with job satisfaction, it only does so for the “new switcher,” whose last job was in the private sector. As careers advance, the negative impact seems to wane, leaving a public sector workforce that, in part as a result of their private sector work experiences, are relatively more intrinsically motivated and “involved” in their jobs. We conclude with discussion of human resources management implications. |
