10. Motivation decoded One of the better definitions of motivation is: The processes that account for an individual’s intensity, direction and persistence of effort toward attaining a goal
Intensity – How hard the person tries. High intensity is unlikely to lead to favourable job-performance unless the effort is channelled in a direction that benefits the organisation. Therefore, we have to consider the quality of effort as well as its intensity.Persistence- how long a person can maintain effort. Motivated individuals stay with a task long enough to achieve thieir goal.
