Employee motivation and job enrichment are described as
two management techniques used to improve human
behavior and attitude towards work, with a view to utilize
available human resources more efficiently and thus make
man management effective. Just as the employee has
certain wants that the organisation is expected to satisfy the
organisation too expert certain types of behavior usually
termed as “Direction” or “Motivation”.
Motivation is the word derived from the Latin word
’motive’ which means needs, desires, wants or drives
within the individuals.
It is the process of stimulating people to actions to
accomplish the goals.
 In the work goal context the psychological factors
stimulating the people’s behaviour can be
 Desire for money
 Success
 Recognition
 Job-satisfaction
 Team work, etc
According to W. G. Scot, “Motivation means a
process of stimulating people to action to accomplish
the desired goals.”
Motivation can be defined as
stimulating, inspiring and inducing the employees to
perform to their best capacity. Motivation is a
psychological term which means it cannot be forced
on employees. It comes automatically from inside the
employees as it is the willingness to do the work.
1) Puts human resources into action
Every concern requires physical, financial and
human resources to accomplish the goals. It
is through motivation that the human
resources can be utilized by making full use
of it. This can be done by building willingness
in employees to work. This will help the
enterprise in securing best possible
utilization of resources.
2. Improves level of efficiency of employees
The level of a subordinate or a employee does not only
depend upon his qualifications and abilities. For
getting best of his work performance, the gap between
ability and willingness has to be filled which helps in
improving the level of performance of subordinates.
This will result into-
◦ Increase in productivity,
◦ Reducing cost of operations, and
◦ Improving overall efficiency.
3.Leads to achievement of organizational goals
The goals of an enterprise can be achieved only when
the following factors take place :-
◦ There is best possible utilization of resources,
◦ There is a co-operative work environment,
◦ The employees are goal-directed and they act in a purposive
manner,
◦ Goals can be achieved if co-ordination and co-operation takes
place simultaneously which can be effectively done through
motivation.
4. Builds friendly relationship
Motivation is an important factor which brings employees
satisfaction. This can be done by keeping into mind and
framing an incentive plan for the benefit of the employees.
This could initiate the following things:
 Monetary and non-monetary incentives,
 Promotion opportunities for employees,
 Disincentives for inefficient employees.
In order to build a cordial, friendly atmosphere in a
concern, the above steps should be taken by a manager.
This would help in:
 Effective co-operation which brings stability,
 Industrial dispute and unrest in employees will reduce,
 This will result in profit maximization through increased
productivity.
5. Leads to stability of work force
Stability of workforce is very important from the point of
view of reputation and goodwill of a concern. The
employees can remain loyal to the enterprise only when
they have a feeling of participation in the management. The
skills and efficiency of employees will always be of
advantage to employees as well as employees. This will
lead to a good public image in the market which will attract
competent and qualified people into a concern. As it is said,
“Old is gold” which suffices with the role of motivation
here, the older the people, more the experience and their
adjustment into a concern which can be of benefit to the
enterprise.
Meaning: Team motivation can be described as
the process that a project manager goes
through to persuade employees to give their
best effort to a professional task. As a small
business owner, it's up to you to find ways to
inspire and motivate your employees. Not
only should a manager encourage ther team
to start a professional project, he should keep
the positive reinforcement constant until the
task is completed.
Intrinsic Motivation: Intrinsic motivation refers
to behavior that is driven by internal rewards. In
other words, the motivation to engage in a
behavior arises from within because it is
naturally satisfying to you. Contrast this
with extrinsic motivation, which involves
engaging in a behavior in order to earn external
rewards or avoid punishment.
 Some examples of intrinsic motivation are:
 participating in a sport because it’s fun and you enjoy it
rather than doing it to win an award
 learning a new language because you like experiencing
new things, not because your job requires it
 cleaning because you enjoy a tidy space rather than doing
it to avoid making your spouse angry
 playing cards because you enjoy the challenge instead of
playing to win money
1. Creative Motivation:
It’s a desire to express yourself. Creativity is a very
compelling internal feeling. Creative people don’t mind
about wanting other people to see or the world to see.
They are motivated to let things out, which are in their
mind and heart. For instance, creative motivation can
be like starting their own business, applying
technologies in different fields, start writing a novel,
creative themed blog, story writing, learning new
musical instruments, etc.
2. Competence Motivation:
 As I mentioned earlier, the sense of competence, if
taken positively, can bring a wonderful self-
motivation. People who are under ‘competence
motivation’ will continuously look for getting better.
They keep challenging themselves; they learn from
their mistakes; they retrospect and compete.
 Towards achieving their goal, competence
motivation is what people exhibit in them. Another
way of competence motivation is with others i.e.,
with their peers. On a positive note, competence
with peers can help them better
3. Learning/Exploring Motivation:
Learning keeps us going. The need to learn, need to
explore is a wonderful intrinsic motivation in people. The
‘Exploring motivation’ will make people look for new
things and see new perspectives.
4. Attitude Motivation:
It’s more inclined towards social status and behavior.
People under ‘Attitude Motivation’ work on making
people around them feel good. In simple terms, the term
attitude motivation is “good intention.” Making people
feel good brings joy, and a wonderful feel to you. That’s
why you are motivated to do more.
Extrinsic Motivation : Extrinsic motivation refers to
behavior that is driven by external rewards. These
rewards can be tangible, such as money or grades, or
intangible, such as praise or fame. Unlike intrinsic
motivation, which arises from within the individual,
extrinsic motivation is focused purely on outside
rewards.
 Here are some other examples of extrinsic
motivation:
 Competing for a trophy or prize, such as in a
sporting event
 Doing schoolwork to earn a good grade
 Working hard at a task or project to receive praise
and recognition
 Shopping with a store loyalty card to gain points,
discounts, and prizes
 Doing homework to earn a reward such as a special
treat or toy
1. External Regulation:
It’s like an intentional behavior or activity but controlled
by external sources or factors. For example, We can see
parents telling kids about the rewards they will get after
getting specific grades. Intentionally you do the studying
as you want to. But, mostly, your studying will be
controlled by the rewards waiting for you.
2. Introjected Regulation:
You do it under internal pressure. It could be due to false
ego, self-esteem issues, guilt, worry, peer appreciations,
approval, validation, and sorts. People do it under an
obligation and not because they want to. People know
that they have chosen it intentionally to do. Yet, it is not
a choice of self-intent.
3. Regulation through Identification:
It’s a more positive side of extrinsic motivation. It’s like
people do things by believing in goodwill.
 For Example: Consider a Student.
 A) The student will have a conscious decision to go to
college. It’s like a self-selected goal. It motivates them to
study hard and get grades. They do it intentionally but
with an external motivating factor.
 B) A major difference here. ‘I want to go to college’ is
different. ‘I want to go to college as everyone’s going’ is
different. The former is regulation through identification.
4. Integrated Regulation:
It’s a wonderful type of motivation. Here, the person will
self-reflect, understands the reason, see if it matches
their values and needs. Finally, they take action. Though
and external factors. It influences them. it is a confident
decision, an individual runs through all options
 Extrinsic Motivation
 Participating in a sport
to win awards
 Cleaning your room to
avoid being
reprimanded by your
parents
 Competing in a contest
to win a scholarship
 Studying because you
want to get a good
grade
 Intrinsic Motivation
 Participating in a sport
because you find the
activity enjoyable
 Cleaning your room
because you like
tidying up
 Solving a word puzzle
because you find the
challenge fun and
exciting
 Studying a subject you
find fascinating
