Abstract
Employees constitute the living systems that make up an organisation. The success of an establishment whether private or public is largely dependent on the quality of people in existence, their level of motivation and the extent to which organizational objectives are attainable. This work is an attempt to lay emphasis on the consideration that should be given to the human element ( by way of motivation ) ,since it serves as the central force in determining the well being of an organisation. If performance and productivity is to be achieved in the private sector, it is of necessity to know the factor that would influence behaviour. An organization's ability to provide most of these incentives would have a better chance of moving it along with the work force towards the attainment of the organization's objectives, the study has shown that the problem faced by the staff of means Company ltd. Ranges from uncertainty regarding promotion insufficient training opportunities, low level of relationship between employees and the management and also the participatory attitude of the top management. Further, the study revealed that most of the problems arose due to the non-importance the management attaches to motivating employees. The factors of motivation are seen more as favour granted to individuals rather than factors to be employed in enhancing efficiency and productivity of employees. Recommendations are offered include the needs to have qualitative and responsive leadership, which will carry the staff along so as to obtain consistently higher performance leading to a better management of productivity. Others are the need for management to take interest in the work force, their needs and aspirations, increment in compensation package and finally the need to enrich employees job from time to time to ensure job satisfaction. It is important to mention that issues may not. be peculiar to the means company Ltd. But also to many organizations in the private sector.
