Identify and describe the three parts of the motivation process.
What will be an ideal response?
Motivation has been defined as “what a person does (direction), how hard a
person works (intensity), and how long a person works (persistence).” Motivation is the
process of energizing behavior by activating people’s needs and drives. Once
energized, it is important to direct the behavior toward goals that are important to the
organization. The third step is sustaining behavior. Research shows that goal-setting
systems and reward systems are necessary to sustain behavior over the long term.
Finally, for motivation to be effective, feedback is needed so that the processes of
energizing and directing behavior stay on track.
