How employees perceive motivation?

An encouraging work culture, favorable company policies, liberal work atmosphere, approachable colleagues and many such reasons are the driving factors for people to stay in an organization for a longer tenure.

For some, indeed, monetary benefits are an essential driving factor. Unlike for people who want to perform, the passion to excel is what drives them. Individuals have learned to think beyond the money factor; but definitely not overlooking it. But for the newer generation who is setting foot in the business, the desire to succeed and perform has been on the forefront. And this is where their motivation lies in.

But for people driven by monetary benefits, their goals and ambitions are based hugely on the way they perceive opportunities for the monetary value it holds. What drives them is probably the quicker they make money out of their jobs, the more successful they are in their careers. Many would say its money; some would look out for stability, while others would look for the challenges.

However, at the end of the day, when it comes to reviewing one’s own self, regardless of what drives you to attain success, everything must be balanced; be it monetary benefits or seeking out opportunities.
