3.3 Usefulness of Motivation Theories
The usefulness of motivation and organisational success is interrelated. These theories define the actual optimisation in organisation. The leadership orientation also changes due to these factors. Financial uplift is an optimal outcome of these motivational factors (Fisher, 2005). Reward, gratitude and punishment system is a good technique to judge employees (Smith and Rupp, 2003) and work strategy model oblige employees to their best performance.
Involvement of motivational theories in organisation reduces complexity and encourages employees to be self-persuasive to work and become capable of generating accomplishment.
From the above discussion it is understood that, the involvement of employees through motivation is very much required for organisation. In this regard, the hybrid model of motivation that is the work strategy model should be effective. M/S Hogan should look forward to making a worthy communication model and put forth the reward and punishment system. This enables the view point focal of the employees and the motivating factors will make them think that they are not working the organisation only rather they are working for themselves.

In today’s environment of companies doing business in a global economy, teamwork is essential. “Employees working in effective teams help increase productivity, employee involvement, and contribution, while reducing costs and flattening organizational structure (Adams, 2003). In contrast, ineffective teams can cause increased costs, waste valuable time, and contribute to losses in market share (Ross, Jones, & Adams, 2008)” quotes Jean McAtavey and Irena Nikolovska in an article in Human Resource Development Quarterly. Today, teamwork is found in virtually all workplaces.

Research has shown that motivation in an employee is an important factor which determines his performance. Motivation is the “driving force within individuals” (Mullins, 2007, p. 285). It is the concerned with finding out the reasons which shape and direct the behaviour of the individuals. The people act to achieve something so that they can satisfy some needs (Gitman and Daniel, 2008). It is important for the manager to understand this motivation of individual employees in order to inspire them and devise an appropriate set of incentives and rewards which would satisfy the needs that they have individually (Kerr, 2003). Once these needs are expected to be met in return for some specific behaviour or action, they would work more diligently to have that behaviour in them and to achieve that objective (Meyer and Hersovitch, 2001). Since it would lead to early and fuller achievement of the company objectives as the individual would work more diligently, it would lead to better organizational performance (Wiley, 1997).
The job of a manager in the workplace is to get things done through employees. To do this the manager should be able to motivate employees. But that’s easier said than done! Motivation practice and theory are difficult subject, touching on several disciplines.
One of the most important theories of HRM (Human Resource Management is that of ‘Motivation’. The purpose of this theory is to explain the role of an organisation in order to encourage its people to put in the best of their efforts and abilities in a way that will help further in achieving better outcomes for the business and organisation’s goals(Armstrong, 2001). There are various techniques that can be adopted to motivate people for instance, rewards, punishments, actions to satisfy needs, psychological processes etc. This world is developing at a rapid pace and due to this development and quick changes; new ways of working and managing organisations have emerged.

Motivation is an important function in organizations to motivate their employees for their ability to perform well, improving their skills, increasing productivity, job satisfaction and employee extension. Employees also are not a machines that we could just program their task in their brain and they will do it automatically, they require motivation to actually do their job properly. And so, after discussing the process models of the Maslow’s “Hierarchy of needs”, Douglas McGregor theory X and Y, and also the Herzberg’s “two factor motivation hygiene theory.” understanding the ways of motivating people, the human nature, and the substance of nature. I believe that the true motivation can only come from within and also managers can actually motivate all of their employees.
