1.2 Statement of the Problem
Motivation
is about giving your staff the right mixture of guidance, direction,
resources and rewards so that they are inspired and keen to work in the
way that you want them to. So, a large portion behind these difficulties
can easily be solved by imparting proper motivation. In the fierce era
of competition, organizations nowadays are more emphasizing on the
management of Human Resources. A manager capable of managing his
employee effectively is a successful one. Motivational tools are the
most effective in this context. We always have to keep in mind that
employees are not motivated solely by money and employee behavior is
linked to their attitudes. James (2014) cited three warning indications
of a de-motivated workforce these consist of poor work environment,
slipping occupation standards and diminished productivity. He further
expressed that in the event that any of these factors is seen to drift
downwards, at that point there is an great possibility that the company
is experiencing a demotivated workforce. Most organizations and
business particularly producing businesses have ignored to perceive the
significance of motivation as an idea be it intrinsic, for example,
employee wellbeing, relationship with managers, organizational policies
or extrinsic , such as, training and career development, great working
conditions, compensation, promotion among different factors that
improve the performance of employee as well as organizational
productivity levels.
Motivation through factors such as employee
wellbeing, adequate compensation, promotion, good relationships with
co-workers and relationships with managers can enhance an employee’s
level of effectiveness and efficiency in the workplace. This is because
good relationships with coworkers as well as managers promote unity and
gives the employee a sense of belonging and acceptance which in turn
boosts employee performance and productivity levels. Employees who enjoy
such relationships both within and outside the work environment tend to
be more effective and efficient as such very productive in discharging
their duties. Therefore organizations should promote accord amongst
employees by organizing social functions in a bid to bring employees and
managers together (Jibowo, 2007).
Therefore an organization’s best
strategy is to provide suitable work environs that allow their workforce
to meet or exceed expectations as well as offer a range of motivators
to improve enthusiasm, performance and productivity levels.
