HR Performance Issues and Motivation

The relationship between the organization and its members can be greatly influenced by what motivates individuals to work. The style of leadership, job design, resources on the job, and environment can all have a significant effect on the satisfaction of employees and their performance. Performance is also influenced by individual motivations (e.g., social, recognition, financial reward, personal growth and development, and/or intrinsic satisfaction) and can equally impact the organization. There are many theories that attempt to explain the nature of motivation. Write a four- to five-page paper (excluding the title and reference pages) evaluating the relationship between motivation, job satisfaction, and work performance. Be sure to address the following:

Describe a performance issue which resulted from a motivational problem (what, why, who).
Use a content theory of motivation (e.g., Maslow, Alderfer, Herzberg, or McClelland) or a process theory (i.e., Adams, Locke, or Heider and Kelley) to explain how the issue creates a performance problem for the organization.
Use the theory of motivation you selected to describe an intervention/action to change the motivation/behavior and correct the performance problem.

Your paper must use a minimum of three scholarly sources, in addition to the textbook. Your paper must be formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.

1. The Performance Issue 
The performance in a retail organization was found to be decreasing and due to which the HR manager Maria was held responsible. Marie was a perfectionist. She was also the director of her company. She managed to coach herself and also her team members in that manner. She always managed to get recognition amongst her peers due to her shear will for hard work and her eagerness to achieve success in her workplace. Though she herself was very hardworking but she was unable to extract the same quality work from her other team members. During the first week while Marie started coaching her team members, she often tried to motivate them by stating motivating and courageous sentences and lines in order to lift up the working spirit of her team members (De Vito et al. 2018). She always insisted them to put 110% of effort for the job. She also stated if the work is worthy of acknowledgement then it would automatically induce a positive working vibe amongst the team for putting better performances.
The approaches adopted by Marie were not working. Team members started to get more resentful towards her approaches. Marie tried with other options like financial rewards, attaining work-life balance, development of new skills. She also realized that the motivating factor in a workplace varies from person to person which may be different from her own ways.
