ABOUT MOTIVATION

Motivation refers to the process of inducing and stimulating an individual to act in a certain manner. In the context of an organization, motivation implies encouraging and urging the employees to perform to the best of their capabilities so as to achieve the desired goals of the organization.

In other words, it refers to driving the individual psychologically so as to induce his willingness to work and perform better. In an organization, motivation can take various forms such as promotion, appraisal, recognition, etc. depending on the expectations and desires of the employee. For example, an appraisal may act as a motivating factor for an employee to improve performance. Similarly, for another employee praise from the senior may motivate him to further improve performance.
