Book excerpt: Case Study from the year 2016 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Miscellaneous, grade: Merit, , course: MA in Human Resource Management, language: English, abstract: For many years, motivation has been a key indicator of productive employee performance within an organisation, so it has been an area of major concern for the organisation and human resource managers. There are wide ranges of factors related to management, employees, organisation and the workplace which make it a complex and challenging job to motivate employees in an organisation. Therefore, different strategies and methods should be used by the organisation and human resource managers to motivate employees. There are different needs and expectations for an employee to join any organisation. Monetary and non-monetary factors are used by human resource managers to achieve different employee and organisation related objectives. The present research works investigates the impact of motivation on the performance of employees in Ramchandrapur High School. Descriptive method and questionnaires embedded with Likert scale was used as main instruments for collecting necessary data to carry out this research work. Data is collected from the sample size of 50 where faculty members, employee assistants, office helpers, and employees in training and security personnel were included. The critical review of the literature and the quantitative analysis of the survey data pointed that both extrinsic and intrinsic motivational factors play an important role in motivating employees. The study revealed that salary is the most effective motivational factor among various extrinsic and intrinsic motivational factors like job security, advancement in career, the good relationship among co-workers, achievement sense, training and development and sense of recognition. The study further reveals that level of motivation among the employees of Ramchandrapur High School is low as compared to the expectation of employees. Although both extrinsic and intrinsic factors are responsible for motivating employees in an organisation, this study reveals that employees of Ramchandrapur High School are motivated more by extrinsic factors than by intrinsic ones. The management of the school should focus more towards satisfying the extrinsic need of employees to hold the employees for long which subsequently helps to increase the quality of the output produced by it.
