Analysis of key factors influencing motivation of employees within an organisation


 


Introduction


The employees are a group within the organization that is undeniably one of the most significant factions that contributes to its success. A business cannot exist without financial capital, but it also can never exist without human capital (Davis, C. 2003). It is the employees who work for the firm, performs the necessary tasks to make the firm function, and are responsible for the profit and growth of the firm (Ellis, 2000). With such great roles and responsibilities tasked to the staff/employees, they are being kept by the firm through strategic motivation approach along with efficient leadership skills. Making employees give their best on their job and tasks is perhaps one of the most challenging endeavors that the firm should perform. Employees can do many things during work that may disrupt or support the attempts of the firm to earn money. Firm should always give the effort to motivate their employees. Motivating employees means empowering them to lead the firm into the path of competitiveness (Bridges, 2001). Motivation or empowerment of employees through efficient leadership is significant to give the employees enough reason to stay in the firm and work their best in the company (Ellis, and Lindsay Lowell 1999). Primarily, the goal of this paper is to analyse the factors affecting motivation of employees within an organisation
