the idea of about the difference between getting things done and not getting things done
Motivation is the idea of about the difference between getting things done and not getting things done; energises people; and directs activities to goals. While it is true that most people believe on motivation as illustrated in various theories, it is argued that not all these theories are applicable in all conditions particularly on the aspect of employee motivation. In general perspective, this paper discusses the motivation theory and various theories including Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, Herzberg’s motivation and hygiene factors theory, McClelland’s Three-need theory, and Vroom’s Expectancy Theory. Several definitions of motivation are presented. But the focus of the paper is on the disagreement that not all motivation theories are sort of generic prescription in addressing managerial difficulties. Thus, this paper believes on the statement of Rollinson with Broadfield (2005) that motivation – “as if it is some sort of medicine that can be dispensed in variable quantities to those who need it most. This is an impossibility.” Further, some cases are integrated to provide explanations on the flaws of every theory. The conclusion summarises the whole paper with relevant comments of the author.
