Human Resources Motivation at Work Place: A Desideratum For Desirable behaviour Towards Achievement of Optimal Benefits In Organizations

Strategic human resource management demands the designation and execution of organizational strategy that enhances employee motivation. A motivated worker is an indispensable asset to any organization, private or public. Thus, the imperative of motivated employees in global competitive markets where organizations are in steady scanning of the operating environment with a view to maximizing comparative advantage cannot be overlooked. The study appraised the nature, methods and necessity for motivated workers in productive organizations. The methodology of the study is a combination of qualitative and descriptive approach. Data generated through relevant literature and structured oral interview were subjected to descriptive analysis. The findings, among other things, demonstrate that a motivated worker does not only feel highly esteemed but work unswerving towards the attainment of the organizational and employee's goals. The employee considers the organization as his/her own and ensures compliance with its code of conduct, mission, vision and objectives. The worker tends to be innovative, prudent in resource management and team spirits oriented. The cumulative result is efficiency and high rate of productivity in the affected organization. Accordingly, the study suggests that human resource managers should find the best measures to motivate their workers individually and collectivity, bearing in mind that what motivate a particular worker may give a reverse result if applied to a different worker.
