ABSTRACT
Management experts find it hard to pin down the factors that lead people to feel motivated to work. Surprisingly, perhaps, they have found that being paid is not a sufficient motivator by itself. They have identified a range of factors to do with the job itself which can lead to motivation. For example, people are likely to feel motivated if they find their work interesting, if they like the people they work with, or work for a good employer who considers their needs and tries to allow for them. The way people are treated by their manager is also likely to affect the extent to which people feel motivated.
