CHAPTER
ONE
1.0 General Introduction
Every organization needs staff motivation in order to
acquire or achieve their aims and objectives.
1.1.
Introduction
An
organization can be explain or defined as an entity of human and non-human
resources which have been joined together to achieve a desired or predetermined
or set organizational objective.
The
organization in this sense will be characterized by pattern of human and
material relationships, status, job responsibilities, rewards and rights that
will either help or obstruct the achievement of corporate goals. It is
reasonably certain that each member of the organization will have personal
objectives tangential to those of the organization as a whole entity. To ensure
effective and efficient management, there must be motivation.
Moreover,
a clever policy maybe, attainment of organizational goals may be elusive if the
implementation is to be handled by a set of disgruntled and indignant workers.
Therefore, the need for a good and proper management of the available human
resources of an organization cannot be over emphasized in the attainment of
improved and high productive.
Then
what really motivate workers? If in an organization there is no apparent
rationality underlying compensation and reward chances that the organization
may not achieve high productivity, but where the situation is favorable very
pleasant result would be recorded. Behavioral Scientists like Fredrick Taylor
(the propounder of the theory of scientific management) have been acclaimed for
propounding theories one of which sees human beings as been economically
motivated. Moreover, other writers like Maslow, Herzberg, MC Gregory and so on
whose work would be examined later, have proved that apart from financial
incentives and increased pay, there are other motivational factors.
Motivation
of staff play a full role in the achievement of organizational objectives has
been one of the most difficult tasks that confront managers and administrators
of organization. The success of a manager solely rest on how effective and
efficient which he is responsible and this effectiveness can be measured by the
organizational efficiency and accomplishment of corporate goals which in turn
depends on the level of mobilization of human resources available within the
set up organization.
