CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY Motivation has a history that falls roughly into three phrases. In the era of the 1st world war, the typical manager gave little thought to motivation. The pattern of leadership was fully Boss centered. The subordinates either did as they were told, or were fired or transferred at random. In the year 1st and 2nd world war. Motivation was based on various rewards. The typical view was to treat the employees well and they will work harder and loyalty and gratitude. Money was considered to be the major means of spurring workers towards good performance. In the recent time, the changed social conditions and deeper understanding of the attitudes of people at work Indicated that earlier ideas of work, motivation, depend on internal or psychological incentives than on rewards. Motivation is not coaxing of persuading people to do what is wanted, but it is rather a process of creating organizational conditions that will enable employee to strive for superior performance.
