Conceptualizing and Measuring Transformational and Transactional Leadership (2019, unknown): “Especially if financial incentives are seen as controlling, they can crowd out intrinsic motivation (Weibel et al., 2009 Andersen & Pallesen, 2008), and this is not the case with non-pecuniary (e.g., verbal) rewards (e.g., Deci et al., 1999).”
