Abstract
Employees constitute the living systems' that make up an
organization. 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.
The workforce therefore, form the bedrock of any
organization.
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 organization.
If performance and productivity is to be achieved in the
private sector, it is of necessity to know the factors
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 workforce towards the attainment of the
organization's objectives. The study has shown that the
problem faced by the staff of Northern Nigeria
Investments Limited ranges from uncertainty regarding
promotion, insufficient training opportunities, low level
of relationship between employees and the management and
the non participatory attitude of the top management.
