      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.

      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.
