CHAPTER 1

1.0   INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this work is to highlight the importance of motivating workers or employees in the realization of corporate objectives of the organization especially in the public service sector. A cursory examination of what keeps the organization going and it is going to be a collective responsibility of all its members.

 

The public service sector is the main focus in which we shall be examining the effect of motivation in the performance of its worker. The public sector as viewed by some scholars of public administration who perceived the public sector as a system which exists in a dynamic equilibrium with external environment.

 

Furthermore, one of the problems confronting Public Service management is that of motivating workers to perform assigned tasks to meet or surpass predetermined standards.

 

It will not be an understatement to say that it is not easy to motivate an individual, for the success of any motivational efforts depends on the extent to which the motivator meets the needs of the individual employee for whom it is intended. The issue on how best to motivate worker to achieve desired objectives has long been one of the worlds' most important, difficult and controversial problems.

 

It is therefore, worthy of note, that the value of the need to motivate worker cannot be fully appreciated until we understand the worker's notion about work, the attitude of a worker to work and the value the worker places on the work, in addition, we have to realize that since the entrepreneur expects a yield or returns on his investments, management has to do everything possible to encourage the worker to put in his best in order that expected returns is made possible.

 

In other words, the worker's notion to work can be described as any undertaking by human beings involving mental and or physical efforts for a reward to keep body and soul together. It is therefore an input by a human being in the clear understanding that he would be materially compensated sufficiently to enable him and his dependents continue to exist in reasonable comfort. Permit me to say that all workers see work as first and foremost as a means of livelihood.

 

This work seeks to examine the need for motivating worker, problems of who and how to motivate workers and types of motivational strategy that would be effective in the public service in particular.
