Essay / Research Paper Abstract
This is a 5 page paper discussing motivational processes and the RCMP. Motivational processes used within corporate structures and within police structures are inherently different. Modern day corporate structures use motivational techniques which are based on rewards and increasing employee satisfaction which could range from increased responsibility, benefits, salary or more direct impact on actions and results of position duties. Within policing organizations however, such as the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) in Canada, organizations are based on hierarchical structures with a military base. Because of this, the traditional motivation by punishment can still seen in addition to the more recent motivation by reward. Increasingly, the RCMP organization has opened its motivational processes to include many psychological components of job satisfaction which include community participation to allow the members the opportunity to work outside of the traditional structured environment and see how relationships between the RCMP and the community can positively impact law enforcement which in turn motivates the member to succeed and remain with the Force.

succeed and remain with the Force. Bruce Kasanoffs article "Personalize What?" studies the relationships within motivational models which are commonly used and effective
within structural organizations. He paraphrases Abraham Maslows "Hierarchy of Needs" as it is often one of the most cited theories of human motivation. The basis of the "hierarchy of
needs" in regards to motivation is that there is a "predictable pattern to the order in which people will pursue certain needs" (Kasanoff, 2002). Maslows original model was based
on the proposal that there was a "ladder" with five rungs in which people would start on the bottom rung and work to satisfy their needs and once the needs
had been satisfied, they would increase their attention on the next rung although he later extended his model to have eight rungs. Basically as people met their needs at a
particular level then they increase their needs, or refined their needs, and would work toward attaining those needs and most often corporations use the attainment of these levels as motivational
