Tiivistelmä
The purpose of this thesis to find out which intrinsic values motivate South Korean programmers when it comes to choosing workplaces.
The global coder shortage is becoming more predominant and it is not difficult to predict that many advanced countries will compete with each other to locate more competent coders for various sectors such as robot engineering, self–driving cars, software business, and so on.
The commissioning company KOTRA strives to facilitate many activities between the government and the company level. Therefore, this essay will be helpful for them to organize programs that attract Korean programmers to Finland effectively.
To find the most preferable intrinsic motivations and factors that are undermining their motivations, quantitative research was done with 16 respondents who are currently working in South Korean IT firms, in the effort to deeply understand what motivates employees in Finnish companies. Additional qualitative research was held to deeply understand what motivates employees in the Finnish working environment.
The findings revealed that Finland is a good country to achieve intrinsic motivations on many levels. Most respondents are motivated and answered Finnish companies are good work environments to achieve work motivations. However, the findings also revealed what could have more to make a better work environment to achieve more work motivations
