INTERDEPENDENCE TYPES MANAGEMENT AND LEVEL OF MOTIVATION IN HOTELS OF SPLIT-DALMATIA COUNTY

Management types can be defined as the level of manager's responsibility with regard to different areas of work and the assumption of positions at different levels of organizational hierarchy. In this paper, three types of management will be analyzed, top management, middle management, and lower management. On the other hand, motivation embraces a range of forces that direct and determine man's behavior. These forces are influenced by many internal and external factors that initiate, determine, and maintain the content, direction, intensity, and duration of a particular type of behavior. The research topic in this paper is related to the interdependence between the types of management and the level of motivation in the hotels of the Split-Dalmatia County. The aim of the research is to determine whether there is a difference in the level of motivation with respect to management types according to hierarchical levels. Given that the persistence of higher levels of motivation contributes to the greater efficiency of the business, the paper will investigate whether there is a statistically significant difference between hierarchical management types considering the level of motivation in the hotels of the Split-Dalmatia County. Empirical research will be carried out using common scientific methods, and in particular through the survey methodology and the method of processing data collected using the SPSS statistical package. The expected contribution of the work is related to the determination of the level of statistically significant difference between management types according to the hierarchical levels given the level of motivation in the hotels of the Split-Dalmatia county.
