Motivation: Meaning, Definition, Nature and Types

Motivation is critical to effective management and leadership.

Organizational productivity declines when employees are not motivated to fulfill the organization’s objectives.

Motivation is a fickle beast. Although chemists tend to be a motivated bunch, on a day-to-day basis focus waxes and wanes for everybody, sometimes in a seemingly random manner. External changes can further compel longer-term peaks and troughs in commitment. Although frustrating to a logical brain, this time of year belies the non-ideal reality. The clear spike in gym attendance at the New Year rapidly attenuates, and strong-willed scientists aren’t immune.😄😄😄

We increasingly make decisions based on short-term goals and gains -- an approach that makes the future more uncertain and less safe. How can we learn to think about and plan for a better future in the long term ... like, grandchildren-scale long term? Ari Wallach shares three tactics for thinking beyond the immediate.😄😄😄

Despite significant odds, why do some managers succeed where other managers have failed?

It’s because these managers know how to promote workplace motivation. These managers know how to influence their team of employees to work with them instead of against them.

As a leader, one of your most effective ways to gain your team members’ cooperation is by positively influencing their motivational needs. The key to this activity is to align your organizational objectives with the individual needs, emotions, and goals of your individual team members. You have to create a working environment that fosters their😄😄😄

Porter and Lawler’s Expectancy Theory:
In fact, Porter and Lawler’s theory is an improvement over Vroom’s expectancy theory. They posit that motivation does not equal satisfaction or performance. The model suggested by them encounters some of the simplistic traditional assumptions made about the positive relationship between satisfaction and performance. They proposed a multi-variate model to explain the complex relationship that exists between satisfaction and performance.

What is the main point in Porter and Lawler’s model is that effort or motivation does not lead directly to performance. It is intact, mediated by abilities and traits and by role perceptions. Ultimately, performance leads to satisfaction,. The same is depicted in the following Fig 😀😀😀

How Motivation Affects You And Your Team
Since motivation is individual, you cannot have a one-approach-fits-all attitude about motivation.
The truth is that the goals that you want to fulfill in the workplace and in your career may be of little interest to others working with you. They simply may not have the same motivations as you do.
This understanding of the origin of the word motivation and its internal focus has special meaning for you as a manager as you seek to get your team to follow your lead. Technically, you cannot “motivate your team.” Your team has to want to fulfill your organization’s objectives for themselves.
Your power as a manager to motivate your employees comes through your ability to create the working environment in which they work. The working environment that you create will either appeal positively to their internal motivation or it will be viewed negatively as something that de-motivates them.😀😀😀

Safety Needs:
After satisfying the physiological needs, the next needs felt are called safety and security needs. These needs find expression in such desires as economic security and protection from physical dangers. Meeting these needs requires more money and, hence, the individual is prompted to work more. Like physiological needs, these become inactive once they are satisfied.😀😀😀

Negative Motivation:
Negative or fear motivation is based on force or fear. Fear causes employees to act in a certain way. In case, they do not act accordingly then they may be punished with demotions or lay-offs. The fear acts as a push mechanism. The employees do not willingly co-operate, rather they want to avoid the punishment.🤪🤪🤪

Though employees work up-to a level where punishment is avoided but this type of motivation causes anger and frustration. This type of motivation generally becomes a cause of industrial unrest. In spite of the drawbacks of negative motivation, this method is commonly used to achieve desired results. There may be hardly any management which has not used negative motivation at one or the other time.😍😍😍

1. Positive Motivation:
Positive motivation or incentive motivation is based on reward. The workers are offered incentives for achieving the desired goals. The incentives may be in the shape of more pay, promotion, recognition of work, etc. The employees are offered the incentives and try to improve their performance willingly.

According to Peter Drucker, the real and positive motivators are responsible for placement, high standard of performance, information adequate for self- control and the participation of the worker as a responsible citizen in the plant community. Positive motivation is achieved by the co-operation of employees and they have a feeling of happiness.😀😀😀
