Abstract
Every organization utilizes the skills and knowledge of its workforce to achieve its set objectives. To obtain maximum productivity from the work-force, the workers need to be motivated to put in their best at all times. Naturally, in an effort to motivate employees, the law of individual differences has to be taken into consideration. Every individual possesses different behaviour, values, character and preference. As a result of these differences, what motivates one person may not motivate the other. For this reason, the management of each enterprise must intelligently work out the most effective motivation theory or method to be applied to get the best out of its employees. No one motivation method is the best at all times and for all categories of workers. Emphasis should not be placed on motivation method but on the outcome of motivation. Motivation theories and methods are means to an end, the end result being employees’ productivity which enables the organization to achieve it s set objectives
