Leisure is time in which our feelings of compulsionshould be minimal It is discretionary time, the time to be used according to our ownjudgement or choice. Charles K. Brightbill (1960) The Challenge of Leisure. Englewood Cliffs, NJ, Prentice-Hall, p. 4.
Discretionary effort is the level of effort people could give if they wanted to, but above and beyond the minimum required. Many organizations manage performance in such a way that motivates employees to do only enough to get by and avoid getting in trouble (negative reinforcement). Typically, these organizations manage by exception, providing consequences for workerâs performance only when it falls below the standard or minimum required.
