motivational fac- tors or satisfactory"
2. The absence of maintenance factors cause dissatisfaction in the employees ,but their presence may not
produce motivation in the employees.
3. The presence of necessary to motivational factors produce motivation and job satisfaction in the
individual, but their absence may not produce strong dissatisfaction.
4. The maintenance factors are policy and management, supervision, good inter supervisor subordinates
personal relationship with good IPR with peers, and fair salary, job security, personal fe good working
conditions and status.
5. The motivational factors are achievement, recognition, work itself, advancement and responsibility.
6. The Herzberg model has given several insights. One of the insights is job enrichment. The idea behind job
enrichment is to keep maintenance factors constant or higher, while increasing motivational factors by
attaching more responsibility satisfying working conditions and power to the job.
3. The hierarchy needs organized step by step to the satisfaction of other needs- physiological needs, safety
and security needs, social needs, esteem needs, and self-actualization needs. A satisfied need is no longer a
motivator of behavior.
1. Carrot and stick approach of motivation comes from the old story
that the best way to make a donkey move is to put a carrot out in
2. The carrot is the reward for moving and the stick is the punishment for not moving.

money, promotion and other incentives.

behavior.

and not the actual satisfaction that an employee expects to receive after achieving the goals.

• Instrumentality is the faith that if you perform well, then a valid outcome will be there.
6. COGNITIVE THEORY

thought or judgement, as in the estimation of probability or in making a choice on the basis of
relative value.
• According to this theory motivated goal seeking behaviour is regulated by these conations which are
bases on the past modified by circumstances of the present and include expectations about the
future.

ABSTRACT
The most challenging activity in the world is doing business. Motivated employee is a valuable asset which
delivers huge value to the organization in maintaining and strengthening its business and revenue
growth. Performance which leads to growth has unprecedented challenges which can be best defined by
internal and external environmental factors, to survive in profitable way in the highly challenging and
competitive global market economy, However, a motivated employee has that flair to exhibit his/her
maximum output, which leads to higher productivity. The objectives of the study were to identify the
various motivational tools used in the organization, to examine the intrinsic and extrinsic motivation on
employee performance, and also to examine the driving forces behind motivation and performance.
The researcher used survey as non-probability sampling method with a sample size of 30. However,
both primary and secondary data collection tools were used. It was find out that, employees turn to work
effectively when they are motivated by job enrichment, economic factors were the major driving force to
motivation. It was suggested that creating a sense of affiliation within the organization, management can
ensure higher levels of productivity and a higher retention rate.
METHODOLOGY
To ensure that all aspects of this descriptive research are analyzed critically before drawing relevant
conclusions, both quantitative and qualitative approaches were employed. The sample size of 30
respondents was used. The sampling technique used for the study was census sampling. Since the sample
size was small everybody stands a chance of been selected. This method was adopted because of its
conveniences, close at hand and easy access approach.
INTERPRETATION
It’s interpreted that 50.00% said job enrichment is the major factor that leads to employees‟ high
performance. It is seen from the table that 60.00% agreed that there are motivational packages in the
organization. From organizational activities 46.67% of the employees are put into Teams to ensure their
participation. From the table 43.33% of the employees strongly disagree with the fact that, management give
full attention to employees. From the table it could be observed that, 36.67% said managers‟ friendly
attitude can be easily coped with. It can be inferred that, 66.67% said the company takes into account the
minimum wage rate. From the table, 50% strongly agree that money is the only source of
motivation that can trigger high performance. 43.33% said they agree that social factors affect
employees‟ motivation. From the table 33.33% said they agree that technological factors affect
employees‟ motivation. However, 60% said they strongly agree that economic factors affect employees‟
motivation. 50% strongly agree that environmental factors affect employees‟ motivation.
CONCLUSIONS
By creating a sense of affiliation within the organization, management can ensure higher levels of
productivity and a higher retention rate. There is a close relation between motivation and retention of
employees in the organization. Demotivated and frustrated employees typically leave the job which has a
negative impact on production. Money is not the ultimate solution, rather job enrichment, affiliation, and
even simply expressing thanks can motivate employees and foster their performance. Important findings and
suggestions are made out of the study. They reflect the nature of the motivation and its effects on
employees‟ performance.
