Abstract |
|
Motives are key to human
behaviour. It plays an important role in performance
and other activities and as such the manager should
know what motivation is and how subordinates can are
motivated towards performance. This study
investigates the role of motivation on employees’
performance as the history of explaining human or
animal behaviour is not new.” why did one do what
one did “had been the subject of working even in the
past, some human behaviour was explained as an
outcome of demos impedance and this explanation was
unscientific. Efforts were also made to determine
principles which could explain human behaviour.
McDougall emphasized that man’s social behaviour can
be explained in terms of instincts which was later
on criticized. Freud used “unconscious metal
process” to explain behaviour especially in case of
perversion, hallucination, dreams, obsession and
anxieties. Attempts have also being made to explain
human behaviour in terms of rules following
purposive model. Also end-state explanation such as
need reduction, tension-reduction or homeostatic
postulates is offered for behaviour. Motives like
drives, needs, instincts are also used to explain
human behavior. Neither inspires of all this all
inclusive theory of explaining human behaviour is
neither easy to present at this stage nor perhaps
will it be possible in the future.
