The staff retention rate has reduced. They are not being adapted to the particular demands of the situation, the particular requirements of the people involved and the particular challenges facing the organisation. The most effective leaders can move among these styles, adopting the one that meets the needs of the moment. Staff spend a considerable part of their lives at work, so it is not surprising that they expect to be rewarded and satisfied with the job that they do.. Motivation is concerned with why people do things as well as what drives them to behave in a particular way. Understanding what motivates individuals is important in work place. Research suggests that motivated employees are happier at work. They get more satisfaction from their work, are absent less often, tend to be more loyal and work with enthusiasm. This encourages them to contribute more to the development of the organisation. Managers do not use team meeting to solve problems, build good working relationships and review how the team is progressing against objectives. Managers do not involve the whole team in planning its development for the future and help staff to realise how much they can learn from one another. They do not use team appraisals to develop the skills and improve the performance of a team as a whole. At the moment the mangers are unable to assess the development needs of individuals. Needs assessments enable us to ground justification for development of a
Motivation is derived from an internal force that provides an individual the opportunity to achieve their needs or goals. People are motivated by a variety of things and often have different motivating factors. Employers should be mindful of individual motivating factors when attempting to motivate staff to increase performance. While some people may be motivated by money, many are motivated by things like: recognition, promotion, and increased responsibility. Once an employer has identified motivating factors they are able to analyze a variety of motivational theories to design and implement a program that will motivate employees to go above and beyond what is expected of them.
The staff members do not know the importance of working in a diverse team and adjust within the team.
Poor communication between management – when the management didn’t communication with their employees it cause then to have low motivation, low loyalty, and high turnover because most of the employees didn’t know what to do or how to do it.
What is motivation? As manager’s, motivation is one of the most vital and crucial assets to possess in managing a business. This drive is a critical tool to use in the work place and determine the success or failure of an organization. Motivation is a driving force that initiates and directs behavior. In other words, motivation is an internal energy that drives an individual to do something in order to achieve a certain goal. Therefore, creating a motivating environment in the workplace will lead to happy employees. Creating a work environment like this, managers can expect low staff turnovers, improved productivity, happy customers, and better financial performance. Therefore, the input of motivation use towards employees determines the output efficiency of the company. However, everyone involved in an organization is motivated differently. Everybody has their own individual needs in regards to motivation. Depending on how motivated a person is, determines the effort that individual puts into the work and therefore, how productive they are.
Employees should always be motivated; this attracts talent, opens up new channels for innovation and creativity and brings in a sense of satisfaction among them which helps the growth and development of the organization.
* Main manager’s attitude. He doesn’t treat his employees with respect and that is also the reason why loads of good staff is leaving too.
If managers cannot adapt a leadership style when required then staff will become unengaged and have low morale. Not recognising their own role in the organisation or the vision of organisation and where it wants to be.
Management is ignorant towards the wrong practices which are prevalent in the organization and are Skeptical towards the changes which can improve them.
Unreasonable deadlines or extreme time pressure, sometimes management can give employees numerous works in the morning and want it back by the end of the day. You can get so overwhelm because of the time pressure you become stress and can make mistake that can cause the company.
• Egotism / arrogance: Worker arrogance can create a big trouble for the supervisors and the managers. There can be problems in delegating. Employees avoid reporting about their work and feedback can be taken negatively.
There is a lack of organisational value systems. Leaders who should be playing a pivotal role in inspiring and encouraging those at the lower levels are found wanting. There are no defined rites and rituals as shown by the haphazard way the project is being handled. There is no common ground for the employees and a lack of direction. Because there is no structured organisational culture any variables which should arise from it are not found and therefore there is a high likelihood of negative employee motivation and with this performance falls away.
What is motivation? Motivation is defined as “an individual’s willingness to respond to the organization’s requirements in short run.” (P.71 Dixon, 1998) For the purposes of this research paper, I find the most fitting definition of motivation is to define it as “the force that Energizes, Directs, and Sustains behavior.” (uri.com, 2014) Motivation is imperative to productivity. A highly motivated staff often leads to high productivity from the workforce.
In this assessment you will have the opportunity to present evidence that shows you are able to:
He has a shop manager that was not aware that the shop was dirty and lacking parts until he was there on his day off to conduct personal business. There is also the absence of a systematic plan of operations. Just giving an employee a "few pointers" is an example of this. These issues have an affect on the employees ' abilities to do there job and ultimately has a negative affect on the value creation process.
Motivation at work stimulates the interest of a person in an activity. Motivation at works is very complex because there are multiple motives operating at the same time. Goals motivate and guide workers' behaviors. Specific goals are better than general goals and little difficulty is better than easy goals. The degree of expectancy determines how much effort is put forth, people will work hard if they expect the effort will pay off. Increased job enrichment which includes more control at work and a high number of tasks to perform leads to high motivation. Stress on the job reduces motivation and productivity. The specific needs to achieve and
