EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION
INTRODUCTION
7
In the organizational setting the word “Motivation” is used to describe
the drive that impels an individual to work. A truly motivated person is
one who “wants” to work .Both employees and employers are interested
in understanding motivation if employees know what strengthens and
what weakens their motivation, they can often perform more effectively
to find more satisfaction in their job. Employers want to know what
motivates their employees so that they can get them to work harder. The
concept of motivation implies that people choose the path of action they
follow. When behavioral scientists use the word motivation, they think
of its something steaming from within the person technically, the term
motivation has its origin in the Latin word “mover” which means “to
move”. Thus the word motivation stands for movement. If a manager
truly understands his subordinate’s motivation, he can channel their
“inner state” towards command goals, i.e., goals, shared by both the
individual and the organization. It is a well known fact that human
beings have great potential but they do not use it fully, when
motivation is absent. Motivation factor are those which make people
give more than a fair day’s work and that is usually only about sixty-
five percent of a person’s capacity .Obviously , every manager should be
releasing hundred percent of an individual’s to maximize performance
for achieving organizational goals and at the same to enable the
individual to develop his potential and gain satisfaction. Thus every
manager should have both interest and concern about how to enable
people to perform task willingly and to the best of their ability. At one
time, employees were considered just another input into the production
of goods and services. What perhaps changed this way of thinking about
employees was research, referred to as the Hawthorne Studies,
conducted by Elton Mayo from1924 to 1932 This study found
employees are not motivated solely by money and employee behavior is
linked to their attitudes. The Hawthorne Studies began the human
relations approach to management, whereby the needs and motivation of
employees become the primary focus of managers.

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.
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.
10
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:
11
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.
5. Trust: the fabric that holds it all together and makes it real.

Employee Motivation
Motivating Factors
13
Financial Motivators
The motivators related to money are called financial motivators.
Regular and good wages and salary, bonus, periodical
increments, profit sharing, leave with pay, medical
reimbursements are some of the common financial motivators.
Lack of these motivators has a negative bearing upon the
performance of the employees.
Non-Financial Motivators
Certain motivators that are not related to money but have a
positive impact on the employees are called non-financial
motivators. Some of the non-financial motivators are as follows.
Job Security
Performance Appraisal, praise and prestige
Delegation of authority
Congenial work environment
Status and pride
Participation
Job enrichment
14
Job rotation
Facilities for paid leaves
Quality of work life
There are many ways to motivate an employee, but choosing the
right way to motivate is the difficult task. Considering the
complexity and volatility of human behavior, it is pertinent to
study the behavior of the employees who need to be motivated.
Any organization is built with employees; hence, employees are
called as the building blocks of any organization. Success of any
organization is in the hands of the employee and their collective
efforts. Employees contribute their work and skills collectively to
the organization for its growth, only when they are motivated.
1 Intrinsic Motivation
Most employers tend to think that money moves people. But
there’s no greater myth. Think of designers and other artists who
choose a career not based on the financial rewards but based on
the intrinsic motivation to express their creativity. The same
applies to your employees. You need to fuel their intrinsic
motivation to enable them to perform at their peak.
Here’s how you can devise ways to ignite intrinsic motivation among your staff:
15
Challenges: Give them new challenges from time to time. Create
scenarios which challenge their creativity and problem-solving
skills. Tell them that you believe that they can do it. Employees
who cannot find anything challenging at workplace, get bored and
become de-motivated and disengaged.
16
• Learning Opportunities: if you want your employees to remain
excited about their work and keep improving, you need to
continuously provide opportunities to learn new skills and
attributes. If you enroll them in Teamspire, it will be just what the
doctor ordered! Teamspire can provide constant inputs and offer
new insights for their urge for lifelong learning.
2 Extrinsic Motivation
17
Like intrinsic motivation, extrinsic motivation also has a vital role
to play. It basically means more visible, concrete and tangible
triggers to motivate your employees. The art however is to use
the triggers of extrinsic motivation selectively and wisely.
Some dermatologists overdo it and some ignore it completely.
The beauty lies in its strategic use to motivate the employees.
Wondering how to use it effectively?
Here’s your roadmap to understand and implement mechanisms of
extrinsic motivation:
18
• Appreciation, Recognition and Gratitude: Appreciation and
recognition instantly transform an employee’s attitude. It triggers a
sense of fulfillment of the work done. It also sets the tone and
pace for the next tasks that he/she undertakes. It would be a
great idea to show your gratitude if an employee goes an extra
mile to make things happen. It sort of ensures a repeat
performance!
19
When you make things black and white, it serves to align an
employee to your scheme of things. Once expectations are clear,
employees can work towards achieving them and it makes them
motivated to achieve concrete and tangible goals.
20
External rewards also work as well as intrinsic motivation triggers.
It’s merely a question of understanding which extrinsic triggers
work in which way and to what purpose. Then you can apply it to
boost the motivation of your staff.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
SAMPLING DESIGN
A sample design is a finite plan for obtaining a sample from a given
population. Simple random sampling is used for this study.
UNIVERSE.
The universe chooses for the research study is the employees of
Hyderabad Industries Ltd.
SAMPLE SIZE.
Number of the sampling units selected from the population is called the
size of the sample. Sample of 50 respondents were obtained from the
population.
SAMPLING PROCEDURE.
26
The procedure adopted in the present study is probability sampling,
which is also known as chance sampling. Under this sampling design,
every item of the frame has an equal chance of inclusion in the sample.
PRIMARY SOURCES.
Primary data are in the form of “raw material” to which statistical
methods are applied for the purpose of analysis and interpretations.
SECONDARY SOURCES
Secondary data’s are in the form of finished products as they have
already been treated statistically in some form or other. The secondary
data mainly consists of data and information collected from records,
company websites and also discussion with the management of the
organization. Secondary data was also collected from journals,
magazines and books.
27
NATURE OF RESEARCH
Descriptive research, also known as statistical research, describes data
and characteristics about the population or phenomenon being studied.
Descriptive research answers the questions who, what, where, when
and how. Although the data description is factual, accurate and
systematic, the research cannot describe what caused a situation. Thus,
descriptive research cannot be used to create a causal relationship,
where one variable affects another. In other words, descriptive
research can be said to have a low requirement for internal validity.
Questionnaire
A well defined questionnaire that is used effectively can gather
information on both overall
28
The questionnaire consists of open ended, dichotomous, rating and
ranking questions.
* Pre-testing
A pre-testing of questionnaire was conducted with 10 questionnaires,
which were distributed and all of them were collected back as
completed questionnaire. On the basis of doubts raised by the
respondents the questionnaire was redialed to its present form.
* Sample
A finite subset of population, selected from it with the objective of
investigating its properties called a sample. A sample is a representative
part of the population. A sample of

DATA COLLECTION,ANALYSIS AND
INTERPRETATION
data collection
The data collection method chosen for this study was a self-
administered questionnaire. Each respondent was given a consent form
to read and sign before completing the questionnaire and the primary
researcher explained the procedure of the questionnaire and written
instructions were also provided. The consent form can be found in
Appendix B. To comply with the University of Central Florida’s
Institutional Review Board for expedited review, the researcher
completed a form stating: the title of the research study, the principal
investigator, supervisor of project, the dates of the proposed research,
source of the funding, the scientific purpose of the project, the research
methodology, the anticipated benefits or risk to participants, the data
collection process, the informed consent process used, and signatures
of the principal investigator and faculty chair. The questionnair and the
informed consent to participate were attached to the form. A copy of
the IRB approval is located in Appendix A, and the survey questionnaire
is located in Appendix C.

Data Analysis
32
3.2. Does employee motivation differ depending upon age group?
There were 104 questionnaires distributed and the collected data was
entered and analyzed using Statistical Package of Social Sciences 11.5
(SPSS). Descriptive statistic procedures were used to generate a profile
of the respondents’ characteristics and as a result a frequency analysis
was conducted on research question #1. To answer research question
two, the data was collapsed into tipped and non-tipped employees and
one way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to detect variances
between employee motivation and tipped and non-tipped restaurant
employees. To answer research question three, the socio-demographics
were analyzed against employee motivation. ANOVA was used to
compare the variance between employee motivation and gender,
employee motivation and age, employee motivation and marital status,
employee motivation and job position, employee motivation and years
in current job, employee motivation and years in the industry, and
organizational commitment and gender.
