between productivity and motivation. Important sources of motivation,

conceptual framework. As an illustration:
The expectancy theory of Motivation, or the expectancy theory, is the
belief that an individual chooses their behaviors based on what they believe
leads to the most beneficial outcome. This theory is dependent on how
much value a person places on different Motivations. This results in a
decision they expect to give them the highest return for their efforts. The
expectancy theory of Motivation, or the expectation assumption, is the
conviction that an individual picks their ways of behaving given what they
trust prompts the most advantageous result. This theory is reliant upon
how much worth an individual put on various inspirations. This outcome
is a choice they hope to give them the best yield for their endeavors. HRM

such can be the most difficult; this article frames HR procedures to assist
