Employee Motivation is a Psychological Process
To understand employee motivation, we first need to know exactly
what it means. The most common definition of motivation states
that motivation is the psychological process that gives behavior
purpose and direction. It has also been defined as the inner
force that drives us to do something.
If a person is to a job and do it good, they need some sort of
employee motivation or motivation factor behind it. In most
cases it is the responsibility of the boss or supervisor to
motivate his or her employees. When employees are motivated they
are more likely to enjoy what they do and therefore will produce
better result from their work. Therefore, the manager or boss is
to motivate the employees then he or she should also be
motivated.
It has been found that employee motivation is the key to
performance improvement. There are several factors that motivate
people to do good work. One of the leading motivating factors in
a job is money. Those people who are being paid well for their
services are more likely to do better work then those who are
not. It has been found in the United States that people who are
being underpaid for the work they do are working up the
level
that they could be. They are too busy thinking about their pay
and wishing they were getting more. If they were getting paid
for their time and effort then maybe they would be motivated to
do better work.
You can also look at employee motivation from a psychological
point of view. According to a psychologist named Maslow, there
are five different levels to motivation. These levels are based
on people's needs. These needs include, physiological, safety,
social, ego, and self- actualizing. Maslow argued that lower
level needs had to be satisfied before the next higher level
need would motivate employees. There are other psychologists who
believe that there are other factors that lead to motivation
amongst people. These include, motivators or intrinsic factors,
such as achievement and recognition, produce job satisfaction.
Hygiene or extrinsic factors, such as pay and job security,
produce job dissatisfaction.
