MANAGEMENT LESSON - PERFORMANCE EQUATION
Motivation refers to the processes that account for an individuals willingness to exert high levels of effort to reach organizational goals, conditioned by the efforts ability to satisfy some individual need.
Motivation can be defined as the factors which energize, direct and sustain employee behaviour.

DEFINITION OF MOTIVATIONOrganizations with highly motivated employees tend to be:

THE VALUE OF MOTIVATIONINSIDE JOB - A motive is an inner drive, stimulus or incentive to satisfy a human need of some kind.
CUSTOMIZATION - People differ from one another and no one has the same needs so people will be motivated differently. Different strokes for different folks.
CITIZEN KANE Employees who experience a heightened sense of emotional connection with the organization, demonstrate higher levels of motivation.
