Each individual has a driving force that encourages their efforts to perform in the workplace. It can be anything: supporting their family, saving up for vacationing, achievement-even to survive. What we do know is that one has to ask what will happen if they perform well in the work place and if it’s enough to keep them motived to work. Employees ask themselves if I go the extra mile will I be noticed? Motivation is a critical factor that needs to be highlighted as one of the key focal points in an organization to achieve efficiency in the workplace. The individual will be productive in the workplace if the individual believes that their desirable goal or need can be reached. Some would argue that underneath that motivation, money plays a primary role for employees in the work place. To some degree, money can be one incentive; however it is not the defining reason for motivation. Non-monetary incentives can be just as effective to motivate an individual. Giving an employee a raise or offering a better salary does not guarantee job satisfaction.
