Organizations are always established to achieve specific goals and such goals are tied to various degrees on staff motivation, retention, and efficiency among other things. Corporate entities especially in the hotel industry are facing a lot of problem in terms of employee turnover. Despite the centrality of motivation as a vital tool in employee's turnover and productivity, it is often underutilized by most managers in workplace. Unmotivated employees are likely to spend little or no effort in their jobs, avoid the workplace as much as possible, produce low quality work and finally exit the organization. On the other hand, employees who feel motivated to work are likely to be persistent, creative and productive, turning out high quality work that they willingly undertake.
