The Buzz word motivation that every organization search in its employee. It was an eye opener for many in the class atleast for me about motivational concepts. With proper motivation you get the maximum output from the employees. But its not easy to bring the motivational factor in one's employee until unless one is either intrinsically or extrinsically motivated.
In the class two type of motivations are discussed.
Intrinsic motivation refers to motivational behaviour that is driven by internal rewards which arises inside the individual whereas Extrinsic motivation refers to behaviour that is driven by external rewards such as money, fame, grades, and praise. This type of motivation arises from outside the individual.
As per Maslows theory, one will actually looks for self actualisation and start to seek for intrinsice motivation when a man or woman was fulfilled with their phyiological needs, safety needs, social needs, esteem needs. Then only the intrinsic motivation come into place. But Viji Maam didnt accept this theory. There are outliers in this also. APJ Abdul Kalam is a perfect example of a person who sacrificed many needs and just worked for his intrinsic motivation. So intrinsic motivation is the one which many times come as a born in quality.
Can somebody motivate anyone else? Can an organization brings in motivation among its employees? Yes, it can but depends on individual response by everyone. Some ideas for bringing in motivation for employees at work places are
1.Give constructive feedback to your employees or sub ordinates.
2.Appreciation & recognition for their work & outcome.
3. Play with their strength, create work life balance, challenge their skills , trust & job security
The point where their work meet their purpose that is the point the instrinsic motivation will take birth in them
