Motivation concept

2. Introduction
 The processes that account for an individual’s intensity,
direction and persistence of effort towards attaining a goal.
Three key elements:
 Intensity – how hard a person tries.
 Direction – effort that is channeled toward, and
consistent with, organizational goals.
 Persistence – how long a person can maintain effort.

3. How can job be redesigned?
Job Rotation
-The periodic shifting of an employee from one job to
another job, usually at the same level.
Job Enlargement
-The horizontal expansion or increasing the number and
variety of tasks that an individual performed resulted in
jobs with more diversity.
 Job Enrichment
-The vertical expansion of jobs.
-Job Enrichment simply increases the degree to which the
worker controls the planning, execution and evaluation of
the work.

Flextime
-Employees have to work a specific number of hours a week but
they are free to vary the hours of work within certain limits.
 Job Sharing
-The practice of having two or more people to split a traditional
40-hour-a-week job.
Telecommuting
-Employees do their work at home at least two days a week on a
computer that is linked to their office.

5. Employee Involvement
A participative process that uses the input of employees to
increase their commitment to the organization’s success.
By increasing worker autonomy and control over work
lives (involvement), organizations:
 Increase employees motivation

 Observe higher levels of job satisfaction

6. Employee Involvement
 Participative Management
-Subordinates share a significant degree of decision-making
power with their immediate superiors.
 Representative Management
-It is rather than participating directly in decisions, workers are
represented by a small group of employees who actually
participate.
 Quality Circles

quality problems, investigate causes, recommend solutions, and
take corrective actions.
