CONCEPTUAL REVIEW

3.1: MOTIVATION:

DEFINITION Employee motivation is a reflection of the level of energy, commitment, and creativity that a company's workers bring to their jobs. "Psychological forces that determine the direction of a person's behavior in an organization, a person's level of effort and a person's level of persistence". G. Jones and J. George from the book "Contemporary Management."

OBJECTIVES

Interest, and enthusiasm, with a high personal and group moral satisfaction with a sense of responsibility. 2. To increase loyalty against company. 3. For improve discipline and with pride and confidence in cohesive manner so that the goal of an organization are achieved effectively. 4.

You can even buy a measured number of skilled muscular motions per hour or day. 7. Performance results from the interaction of physical, financial and human resource. 8. For the achieving a desired rate of production.

IMPORTANCE OF EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION

The workforce will be better satisfied if the management provides them with opportunities to fulfill their physiological and psychological needs. The workers will cooperate voluntarily with the management and will contribute their maximum towards the goals of the enterprise. Workers will tend to be as efficient as possible by improving upon their skills and knowledge so that they are able to contribute to the progress of the organization. This will also result in increased productivity. The rates of labors turnover and absenteeism among the workers will be low. There will be good human relations in the organization as friction among the workers themselves and between the workers and the management will decrease. The number of complaints and grievances will come down. Accident will also be low. There will be increase in the quantity and quality of products. Wastage and scrap will be less. Better quality of products will also increase the public image of the business.

FACTORS THAT MOTIVATES EMPLOYEES

Empowerment: Feeling trusted and empowered is a tremendous motivator. Growth: Feeling that they are growing and developing personally Inclusion: To belong is a fundamental need, whether as a member of a family, peer group, network, team or company. Its human nature to want to be on the inside, not the outside.

Purpose: Today people care more about what happens tomorrow, and want to contribute to ensuring the future of our children, and the health of our communities and planet. Trust: The fabric that holds it all together and makes it real is trust.

MOTIVATION CONCEPTS
Intrinsic motivation Intrinsic motivation refers to motivation that is driven by an interest or enjoyment in the task itself, and exists within the individual rather than relying on any external pressure. Intrinsic Motivation is based on taking pleasure in an activity rather working towards an external reward. Extrinsic motivation Extrinsic motivation refers to the performance of an activity in order to attain an outcome, which then contradicts intrinsic motivation. Extrinsic motivation comes from outside of the individual. Common extrinsic motivations are rewards like money and grades, coercion and threat of punishment. Competition is in general extrinsic because it encourages the performer to win and beat others, not to enjoy the intrinsic rewards of the activity. A crowd cheering on the individual and trophies are also extrinsic incentives. Social psychological research has indicated that extrinsic rewards can lead to over justification and a subsequent reduction in intrinsic motivation. In one study demonstrating this effect, children who expected to be (and were) rewarded with a ribbon and a gold star for drawing pictures spent less time playing with the drawing materials in subsequent observations than children who were assigned to an unexpected reward condition. For those children who received no extrinsic reward, Self-determination theory proposes that extrinsic motivation can be internalized by the individual if the task fits with their values and beliefs and therefore helps to fulfill their basic psychological needs.

TYPES OF EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION

Understanding employee motivation is necessary to the success of a company. By knowing what encourages an employee to do his or her job, a company will be able to implement different policies to increase the performance of the workers. In order to understand employee motivation, one must realize that people are different. This means that different things motivate different employees.

Achievement One type of employee motivation is achievement. In this type of employee motivation, the worker is driven by the goal itself. This in a sense is like climbing a mountain because the mountain is there. Employers often make use of this by presenting challenges to the employees. In making use of this type of employee motivation employers often include incentives such as a promotion or cash. However, for the employees, the incentive is only a bonus to the achievement. Advancement For some employees, their motivation is the prospect of rising up in the ranks of the corporation. They work hard in order to catch the eye of the boss and probably get a promotion. This type of employee motivation is characterized by ambition. Of course, there are times when this type of employee motivation can be dangerous. Sometimes, superiors may find their jobs in danger because of an advancement-motivated employee. However, if handled properly, an employee whose motivation is advancement can be the best in the business. As such, this type of employee motivation should be handled carefully.

Pressure Some employees work harder under pressure. This employee motivation is rarely manifested consciously in a worker. It is often the case that an employee unknowingly piles pressure on him or her and this pressure pushes them to work harder. Sometimes, pressure is used by and employee to see just how far he or she would be able to go. However, this type of employee motivation can have some very negative results, considering the fact that every person has a limit. In fact, it often ends up in a breakdown of some sort. Fear This is one of the most commonly used employee motivation techniques. Employees are often threatened with termination if they fail to meet certain objectives. Of course, if an employee does not handle pressure very well, this type of employee motivation technique could be detrimental to his or her work performance. The key to the best employee motivation technique is balance. You need to understand that people have different preferences. Since it is virtually impossible to meet every employees motivation needs, you must develop a technique that incorporates all of the elements of employee motivation. In doing so, you will be able to ensure your companys continued growth.
