Motivation at Workplace
The purpose of surviving economically has driven people to
work. Work is the process of exercising energy to accomplish a task and also to
receive a reward in form of wage or salary. Work has been a catalyst that
propels me to go out everyday to make a living for my family and that provides
me incomes to pay my monthly bills, buy groceries and pay my School fees. A person
needs to have the right attitudes to work and that will surely help employees
to perform very well at work. Attitude is a factor that should be observed when
investigating motivation levels because of its potential link to participation,
or lack thereof, in physical task (Bryan & Solman, 2003.p268). Good attitudes
give me the extra strength to perform my daily task because I need to be
treated with respect and dignity. A good manager will surely ensure a workplace
free of harassment and bullying and that actually promotes performance at
workplace.
Motivation
is a driven force to human performance. Good management and hard work motivate
me to succeed in my career life. I like to learn from every person because
every person is indispensable, it is not a good idea to look down on people
because of their position, gender or race, every person has something to offer.
Learning process which is part of good management is very important for
organization to train employees to learn new skills. I always motivate myself
to learn new skills every time which have really helped me to compete in the
global stage. Motivating people is a perennial management challenge, but in
times like these it’s up to learning professionals to ensure that motivation is
given more than just Lip service (Musselwhite, 2011.p46).It is really necessary
to lead by example, any employee that performs very well at work must be
rewarded either by promotion or increase in salary.
Anytime I receive positive feedback from superior, which
always motivate me to do more for my company and has been a great factor for me
to succeed.
Productive day can be a day that rate of production is
really high and a day that my company make huge profits on sale or increase in
company stock price. A productive day is organizational choice that determines
a way forward and how to remain competitive in a global market.
