Introduction

Most organization ignore this drive that motivation is the success factor that make employees think more of organizational interest and less of individual interest.
Countries like Japan, American, Russia, China, and Europe are known for their technological advancement. The secret behind the success of these developed countries is that they have developed a culture of motivating their labour force. It is worthy to mention that a motivated worker is the most productive worker. The worker who sometimes equals or excels in any standard his boss sets for him.
Herzberge defined motivation in a book jointly written by Williams F. Dawling and Leonard R. Sayle titled “How motivates”) (1971) as: “An inner desire, to make an effort.
This definition implies that there is a reagent that acts as a catalyst that gears or gingers up the effort that, make an employee go the extra mile to achieve what he/she would ordinarily not achieve under normal circumstances, the term “motivation” derives from the Latin word “movere which means “to move”. It is virtually impossible to determine a person’s motivation until that person behaves or literally move.
Robert Kreitner in the fifth edition of his book titled “management” (1990) defined motivation as “the psychological process that gives behavior purpose and direction.
By applying this process, managers attempt to get individuals to willingly pursue organizational objectives. The individual workers behave in a certain manner or towards a certain direction informed by a drive within them and this give them the urge to aspire to satisfy that objective.
The resultant effect the motivation is the attainment of higher productivity by organization, (both private and public).
In essence, motivation is a function of performance, which eventually leads to sustain the success of organization. A working definition (Cole 1995) of motivation is as follows: “Motivation is the term used to describe those processes, both instructive and rations by which people seek to satisfy the basic drives, perceived needs and personal goals which trigger human behavior”.
It becomes pertinent for all organization to know that motivation is a success factor in order to achieve higher performance.
