Motivation is the process of encouraging someone to do an act by providing an incentive that drives his power and ability to a certain desired behavior. It was due to the desire of managers and top officials to increase the productiveness of their employees which led to increase in production and profits thus resulted to the discovery of motivation (Miller and Rice, 1967). Employees need to be encouraged to work but this would not be effective enough, and that is why they are awarded salaries. This in turn motivate them but does not make them work to their full potential thus, additional incentives are introduced to push them to work to their limits. This pushing is the one referred to as motivation. Motivation can be from within one’s potential or can be from external. Abraham Maslow is considered the father of motivation since he identified and grouped the needs of employees’ which he advocated for managers to consider and apply in order to have a conducive working environment. He postulated that humans have needs which cannot be satisfied at once and the unsatisfied needs are the ones which motivate them, while satisfied needs do not have any impact on them. He designed the basic model which he grouped humans needs and ranked them accordingly and argued that in order for employees to work unselfishly and properly their needs have to be met (Maslow, 1954). These needs were prioritised from the most basic ones to the least but important ones. He developed a hierarchy of needs with the basic needs at the lowest of the group. These basic needs include items needed for survival like food, clothing, shelter, health, sex and sleep. After the basic needs have been fulfilled then other needs arise and are categorised as safety needs. These are needs that humans need to feel secure in their working environment which entails both social and safety needs. Common safety needs include law, job security, protection, stability, and medical insurance and financial reserves. If it happens that either the basic needs of the safety needs are not met, priority will be on them and an individual will not go the next level of needs. The other level is the social needs. In this level individuals need to feel loved, appreciated and accepted in the society. One has to blend in the society by having friends, have a sense of belongingness and feel loved. After achieving these needs, they move on to the higher level of esteem needs. This is where an individual develops the sense to be important thus, wants to increase his/her self esteem and boast on his achievements. Such needs are like self respect, achievement, independence, status, attention prestige and managerial responsibility. Not many people reach this level due to low levels of income and need to meet the lower levels. Only a few are able to meet the esteem needs thus, move on to the next level which is self-actualization stage. At this stage, individuals realise their full potential, self fulfillment and become what they always wanted to be. This level needs are never satisfied as there are always new ventures that one can never fully discover or achieve like truth, justice and wisdom (Maslow, 1954). Motivation can be from within or influenced by external forces thus, divided into two: Intrinsic and extrinsic. Intrinsic is where an individual gets motivation
