Abstract

The objective of this study is to investigate the influence of stress and motivation on architecture professionals, based on the bibliography studied and the results of a field research. The monograph presents the concept of stress, its factors, phases and prevention techniques, as well as motivational theories and processes that can be performed. In addition, it addresses the issue of productivity, its factors and the direct relationship between stress and motivation, all focused on the main characteristics of architecture and urbanism professionals. Field research obtained information about the reality of the profession by assessing aspects such as stress symptoms, factors related to the organizational and personal environment, the degree of motivation and how this influences the work productivity of the interviewees. It was found that the vast majority of subjects found stress levels already in the resistance and exhaustion phase and also felt unmotivated towards their work, due to the dissatisfaction of their salaries and the lack of professional development, thus being affected directly by the productivity and quality of their work.
