Management of Organisations Concept of Work Motivation

Question: Discuss about the case study Management of Organisations for Concept of Work Motivation. Answer: Introduction The report will discuss in detail about the concept of work motivation. Motivation at work is something that develops from within an individual at the same time there are things that is completely beyond the individual form (Pinder, 2014). In order to understand, what motivates one at work is a study in itself and a lot of psychology is involved in this. What motivates me at work? I am motivated by many things at work and the primary thing which motivates me is doing the meaningful and concrete work for the organisation and recognising for my work (Danish and Usman, 2010). Both these elements are main factors for making me successful at work which become important motivators (Pinder, 2014). Another important motivator at work is the pay and constant appraisal in the pay. Singapore Airlines also comes with lots of perks like good lifestyle and travelling for free travelling all over the world and at the same time getting paid for traveling (Danish and Usman, 2010). The company is the five star airlines in the world. The company gave us the opportunity to develop a leading edge for the company by constantly improving and evolving in the organisation (Pinder, 2014). Factors that demotivates at work There are number of factors as well that demotivate an employee in Airlines industry. Following are the factors that demotivate me: Travelling to number of countries can be a strenuous job and this is why, the GMT difference leads to major jetlag and there is no time to recover it as we constantly moves into new cities (Chen et al, 2011). Constant travelling keeps us away from home for a very long period of time. This is why, I constantly miss home. Travelling and constant jetlag also create a lot health issues like sleeping disorder (Kultalahti and Liisa Viitala, 2014). Being on flight all the means that one has to be very careful and alert with the customer. This makes my job very demanding and I am in constant pressure to perform (Chen et al, 2011). Lack of vision for career is another factor that can lead to demotivation. Money is one part for motivation and there are number of people including me who are also looking for clear career goals and it can be a useful process to set clear, long-term objectives for employees (Chen et al, 2011). Job insecurity also impacts employees motivation. Every employee wants to be in a place where they can feel secure (Kultalahti and Liisa Viitala, 2014). Conclusion Motivation in employees and productivity can increase and at the same time improve the work environment. This increases number of factors that can affect the performance. These elements are actually quite simple to understand, easy to calculate and at the same time also add a lot of value in organisation (Kultalahti and Liisa Viitala, 2014). The report has discussed in detail about the factors that motivates and demotivates me at work. These are the some crucial and key things that can contribute in the work that works as major motivators and once people identify them; people get the power to completely revamp the work and the factors that keep them moving (Kultalahti and Liisa Viitala, 2014).
