Abstract

The purpose of this case study was to propose motivational strategies based on spirituality for the personnel of the company Transporte y Servicios Montiel, C.A. based in the Lagunillas municipality, Zulia state, Venezuela. Methodologically, it was a case study, with a non-experimental, field and transectional design, in which eight informants belonging to the company's personnel were consulted, using a Likert scale questionnaire, validated by experts and with a reliability Cronbach's alpha of 0.97. The pre-eminence of internal and external motivational factors postulated from motivational theories in human resource management is shown, even when internal ones prevail over external ones. However, a low assessment of spirituality at work was evidenced, although its individual nature associated with beliefs and values ​​is recognized.
