1.2 STATETEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
The
main aim of any organization is goal orientation and its attainment and
for any organization to achieve its aim, there must be a well
articulated and co-ordinated activities which require administration.
The proper implementation of policy may not go along way if the workers
are not adequately mobilized, encouraged and stimulated for work. In
other words the morale of the working crew have to be boosted or aroused
so that they could put in their best in reaching the organization’s
goal.
Although, organizations differ in what they can do to motivate
workers, so also people differs in what motivate them to work. For
instance, people may work hard because of companionship, money,
recognition, advancement, for future security in the system, and
sometimes because of an incentive system that rewards their efforts. The
challenge to management therefore, is to recognize and comprehend the
impacts of the various motivational techniques on individual and group
behavior within the organization. Towers (2003) emphasizes that employee
motivation is perhaps the biggest driver of organizational performance.

and maintain it is able to leverage their zeal and drive in order to
ensure staff performance. This study is aimed at examining the impact of
workers/employee motivation on their performance.
