People differ not only in their ability to do, but also in
their love to do", this love is (called motivation) it depends their strength
of their motives.
Motivation is an internal driving force which result in
persistent behaviour directed towards a particular goal.-
PUGH (1991;53) assert that
motivation is a perennial organization problem, which change from generation to generation
as economics condition and social valued changes. He then define it as a
decision making
process through which the individual chooses desired outcome and set in motion
the behaviour appropriate
to acquiring them.
CORR1FIN (1992;127)
define it as a set of forces that cause people to behave in particular way, according to him,
motivation ability and environment determine performance. It is an emerging
force that induces
or compels and maintains.
NWACHUKU (1981),
Motivation is a general term applied to the entire class of derives desires, needs, and wishes, and so
on it is the act of influencing and stimulating individuals, to action/work it

choices made by person among various forms of voluntary action.
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Motivation is a management tools, management is very
exciting and dynamics discipline which has a special appeal to people who aimed at getting
things done in an effective and efficient way, the art of defining management is
however not easy.
Management can be view from different aspect of main's
activities in his effort to achieve the stated objective of an
organization effectively and efficiently
white some people has the terms that
help management to operate, control, and
'co-ordinate effectively and efficiently.
Motivation
is a process and manner in which the objectives of an organization are
achieved through the
combinations and co-ordination of the available resources which are motivation
of work to increase the level of productivity.
However,
for implementation to work out effectively there are some management skill,
needed by managers which will
assist in carrying out his/her duties in an organization effectively.
Robert
Katz classified skill as basic of works to help managers to work effectively in
an organization.
In his book called managerial techniques and
skills (1862)pg 63
i. Technical skills: This is the ability of a manager to use tools and procedure and
techniques in Specialized field,
ii. Human skills: This is an ability of the mental
that requires understanding and motivates people
to
achieve the stated goals,
iii. Conceptual skills: Is also a mental ability require of manager to
co-ordindate and integrate all
the
interest of an organization.
Finally,
this study will look into management skill, how it has helped early
organization and in our modern days with it usefulness in staff motivation and
it productivity in an organization.
1.2 STATEMENT
OF THE PROBLEMS
In
every organization today, there is a huge tendency that the organization will
be facing- problem within
and outside the organization.
The
internal problem which may also arise from the part of the productivity and how
to motivate work.
First
if there is financial problem, when the organization is handicap financial on
the increase of improving
it product and not by able to maintain it services, their worker may not be
motivated to the extends
needed more over salary of work may be affected and this will reduce staff
ability and effort on productivities.
Secondly,
if there is no accurate about the time lay between the satisfaction of the
lower level and emergence
of a higher level needs.
However,
main problem that this organization may encountered as at present is the
completion of the questionnaires
because some of these staff were very busy as a result of change of management.
Thirdly
political and economics problems currently facing the country, make it
difficult for the organization
to set as much as possible for motivation system are likely to be facing job
enrichment, if the job environment and job itself is not enriched by any means,
then the worker will not be motivated, which may also affect the level of productivity and effort of worker-will
be reduce.
Also,
if in any motivation system there is no improve in any forms, then problem will
occur if there is no
dynamic improvement in procedure, guideline of work and the management is
statistic then, worker will not
be motivated.
Any organization
that does not give records or account for work that have been alone in every
work place, this will also encourage the worker
and there will be problem in the system and. it will not move worker to add effort because the effort is not
accounted for, which say without accounting for work done then performance
appraisal will not be encouraged.
Finally,
if there is no career development mode for worker (staff, the organization will
be a garbage in and out of the
system, organization should set career development arena for staff.
