Professional Business Project Employees on Organisation

Question: Describe about the Professional Business Project for Employees on Organisation. Answer: Introduction: Employees are always been considered as the integral parts of the organization. The success of a business is highly dependent on the performance of every employee at the workplace. In order to provide an effective service to the organization, employees need motivation from the organizational managers or the employers. This particular study provides a deep insight regarding numerous motivational approaches that the business managers can use for encouraging the spirit of the employees. By using various approaches of motivation, organizational managers intend to maintain a good communication with the employees. Keeping an effective communication with the employees is one of the major ways maintaining employee relation at the workplace. While working within the organization an employees key focus remains customer centric. Providing a systematic service to the customers for satisfying their demands is the primary mission and vision of every business organization. Employees being an integrate part of the business organization try their best to provide the best services to the employees. However, an immense co-operation and support is needed on behalf of the managers as well as employees for getting satisfactory services from the employees. However, in this particular study an in-depth analysis has been developed regarding the importance of motivational approaches, various factors affecting motivations to the employees and the impact of motivational approaches and so on. The concept of motivational approach along with motivational theory Employee motivation is a process or a commitment that an existing worker gets from the organizational managers, leaders or the employers in order to reach the business goal. Before involving a particular employee within a specific project, the managers need to provide support and co-operation so that employees get enough enthusiasm from them. Appelbaum, (2013) stated that most of the business organization tends follow motivational theory within their organization so that both the employers and the employees can be force to maintain this value. As per Herzbergs Hygiene factors theory, motivation comes from the spirit. Spirit and demonization are two contradictory factors. In order to maintain the spirit and courage at the workplace, the de-motivating factors should be left (Bell, 2013). Employees should have that capability to overcome any kind of temporary barriers, be it organizational or external. On the other hand, Maslows Hierarchy of needs is considered as one of the most effective human motivational theories that implies the needs of human being is constituted with five motivational factors. These include self-actualization, esteem, love, safety and psychology. Self-actualization believes that an individual person should have the efficiency to accept the reality and to solve any kind of problems at various difficulties (Cherian Jacob, 2013). Esteem implies that a person should respect others feelings in order to get that respect from others. Love indicates a bonding among the organizational employees while working at the same place. Employees should have a feeling of security at that places where they are working. Psychology is otherwise named as mentality. People of various cultures and background are associated with an organization (Chiang Hsieh, 2012). Their mentality may not understand each others feeling. Therefore, Maslow suggests that employee should maintain unit y at the workplace so that managers get the opportunity to take a collective decision. These four factors are primarily responsible for motivating an individual employee at the workplace. Figure 1: Hierarchy of need (Source: Cho Perry, 2012) Importance of motivational approach to the employees Motivational approaches are highly effective on the performance of the employees. Some of the major importance of motivational approaches is as follows: Improves the level of performance: Graves, Sarkis Zhu, (2013) stated that employees sometimes being skillful and competent in their own field fail to perform well at the workplace due to the lack of spirit and motivation. Therefore, ability along with willingness renders good performance. In order to get an effective performance from the employees, motivational approaches is one of the major ways, based on which the employees can perform well. Changes indifferent or negative attitudes of the employees: People of various psychology and attitude belong to an organization. They consider that providing extra effort for the success of an organization is meaningless. In this kind of situation, the responsibility of thee managers are to convince those employee how organization facilitates them for their additional efforts (Hau et al., 2013). For an example, if an individual is ready to provide additional service for the organization, this person is rewarded. This particular reward acts as a motivation for this individual that is able to remove negative attitudes from the mind of the employees. Reduce the employee turnover: Motivation reduces the percentage of employee turnover. With the changing demand of the customers as well as thee employers, employees become frustrated to survive in the tedious workplace. In this kind of situation, those employees tend to take many drastic steps. Jiang et al., (2012) opined that turnover is considered as one of those steps. Therefore implementing employee motivational approaches within the process of business is one of the most effective ways of reducing employee turnover. The company can provide necessary facilities and benefits to the employees so that they get tempted to work under the work environment of this organization. Figure 2: Importance of motivational approaches (Source: Kehoe Wright, 2013) The approaches of increasing motivation Several approaches or techniques of increasing employee motivation are as follows: Creating a positive work environment: The management should always maintain a positive work environment within the business organization. Positive environment can be created with the help of sharing ideas, encouraging the spirit of teamwork, prohibiting any kind of dispute at the workplace and so on. Managers have to take the responsibility for maintaining these kinds of positive environment at the workplace. In addition, sharing views also helps the managers to take any collective decision at the emergency time. Using participative leadership style for setting a particular goal: Khan et al., (2012) stated that participative leadership style at the workplace encourages the employees for providing their best services towards the organization. With the help of participative leadership style, both the employees and the managers can participate equally for setting a business goal. Managers do not intend to impose their decision on the employees. As a result, employees feel glad to share their opinion regarding the betterment of business process. Therefore, participative leadership style is always fruitful for motivating the employees. Figure 3: Different approaches of employee motivation (Source: Larkin, Pierce Gino, 2012) Factors affecting employee motivation It is also undeniable that some of the major factors highly affects the motivation and spirit of the employees. Due to those factors, the business growth and success are affected as well. The factors are as follows: Implementation of autocratic leadership style at the workplace: With the help of autocratic leadership style managers intend to impose their decision on the employees. As a result, employees do not get enough opportunities to share their point of views regarding the business goal (Leblebici, 2012). In this kind of situation, employees get de-motivated to perform well as their decision is of no value. Therefore, the organization should follow democratic leadership at the workplace so that the employees get motivation in order to put their best effort for the organization. Ineffective communication between managers and the employees: Sometimes managers do not intend to maintain an effective communication with the employees. The employees as a result hesitate to share any kind of problem regarding their job profile. This kind of relation renders a distance between managers and the employees. In order to overcome this static situation, organizational managers should arrange a face-to-face communication at least once in a weak where the employees would like to disclose their heart about any kind of problem inside the organization. As a result, the interpersonal relation between the managers and the employees would be stronger automatically. Lack of implementation in regulations and acts at the workplace: In order to run an organization successfully, the authority has to follow some of the major regulations and acts at the workplace. These include data protection act, right to information act, health and safety act, anti-discrimination act and so on. With the help of those acts and regulations both the employees and the employers can avoid legal issues. If a business organization shows their reluctance to follow these necessary acts and regulations at the workplace, the employees do not want to involve within the service process of this particular company. Lee Ok, (2012) stated that security is necessary in order to provide good performance to an organization. Lack of security loses the level of confidence to the employees. Figure 4: Factors affecting employee motivation (Source: Manzoor, 2012) Impact of employee motivation on the performance of the employees Corporate performance as well as the revenue growth is highly challenging for a business industry. Employees have a major contribution for rendering the sufficient revenue from various sources. However, motivational approaches are one of the most effective factors based on which organizational employees can perform well. The positive impacts of employee motivation are as follows: Increasing productivity: If the employees get immense motivation and support from their leaders or manager, they get enthusiasm for performing well towards products or services. With the help of democratic leadership style, organizational leaders give enough opportunities to the employees for sharing their point of views regarding the business goal. Therefore, being encouraged, the employees tend to provide effective services for increasing their productivity. the productivity of an individual employee. On the other hand, the effect of employee motivation is not devoid of some of its major negative effects as well. These are as follows: Employee turnover: Due to the lack of healthy environment at the workplace, employees lose their confidence to survive within the workplace. They get de-motivated to provide an effective service to the customers. As a result, turnover becomes the ultimate solution. Employee turnover is the indirect cause of organizational disaster. Organization would fail to maintain sustainability if the employees cannot survive for a long time. The success of a business organization is highly dependent on the performance of experienced employees. Dishonesty: If an individual within the organization gets tempted and provoked in the name of motivation, this particular employee becomes harmful for the company in future. Providing a good service to the customers is not the primary concern for those employees. Their only concern is self-satisfaction. These kinds of employees are truly poisonous for meeting future organizational goal. Conceptual framework: Figure 5: Conceptual framework Source: Created by author Outline of the methodology: Research methodology is a systematic process based on which the entire process of research is accomplished systematically. This particular process helps to collect sufficient data and information regarding the research issue (Rajhans, 2012). This particular study has focused to deal with the importance of motivational approaches to enhance the performance level of employees. In order to gather sufficient data and information, some relevant research methodology can be used such as appropriate research philosophy, research approach, research design and various data collection methods and techniques. In order to know different techniques of motivational approaches post positivism philosophy has been used for this particular purpose. Positivists believe that observation is repeatable and a phenomenon is isolated (Skudiene Auruskeviciene, 2012). This particular philosophy is very much fruitful for gathering necessary data regarding the research issue. In addition, for this particular research, deductive approach has been effectively used due to the several reasons. Deductive approach is completely based on case study. With the help of deductive approach, a case study regarding the effectiveness of motivational approach has been made. Management of data collection (statistical, demographical and visual) Data collection procedure is one of the most systematic ways of gathering relevant data and information with the help of various sources. Data collection procedure is constituted with two types primarily that include primary data collection method and secondary data collection method (Wright, Moynihan Pandey, 2012). In this particular study, data has been gathered with the help of secondary source of data collection procedure. Three primary types of data has been used in this study that includes statistical data collection, demographic data collection and visual data collection. Statistical data collection method is constituted with four types including textual method, tabular method, semi tabular method and graphical method (Yeh-Yun Lin Liu, 2012). In textual method, the reader generally intends to gather information by gathering data from various textbooks. Tabular semi tabular method is based on orderly presentation presenting through various columns and rows. Graphical data method helps to provide information through various graphical representations. Demographic data is based on a particular region within a specific population. Sampling techniques have been used at the time of collecting demographic data. Sampling is constituted with two types including probability sampling technique and non-probability sampling technique method. Visual data collection method is based on the power of observation of the data analysis from various authentic sources. This particular study has focused to concentrate on probability sampling method. With the help of probability sampling method, a random sampling technique has been used in order to collect data and information from various resources. This particular study has focused to highlight the motivational approaches of some of the renowned companies of Australia among which B2M Solution is most prominent (Yidong Xinxin, 2013). As already stated, secondary analysis is the key concern for this particular study. Secondary data analysis is primarily constituted with four types including thematic an alysis, case study analysis, observation analysis and finally focus group analysis. This particular study has decided to use observation analysis due to several reasons. With the help of observation analysis, an in-depth critical analysis regarding the importance of motivational approaches has been pointed out based on four journals. Ethical consideration Before conducting any research regarding a particular topic, ethical consideration is one of the integral parts. The application on new motivational approach is the concerned topic based on which the importance of motivation for increasing the productivity of an employee has been evaluated. While collecting relevant data and information regarding a particular topic some of the major ethics and values should definitely be maintained. For an example, the participants should not be forced in order to provide any important data for the research. The co-operation should be spontaneous. This particular research is possessed with secondary data sources. Therefore, the books or journals or magazines from where data has been collected should be authentic and reliability. These specific values and ethics should strictly be maintained at the time of data collection. Conclusion The entire study has provided an in-depth understanding about the application on new motivational approach towards the performance of organizational employees. Every organization should have to be concerned about employee motivation first for running their business successfully. The impact of employee motivation, factors affecting the approaches of employee motivation and finally the role of employee motivation for rendering the business growth has discussed in detail in this particular study.
