When chris mittelstaedt says, "people like to be part of something bigger than themselves," what are the implications for employee motivation? why would an accounting firm spend money week after week for deliveries of fresh fruit for its employees? explain your answer in terms of the motivation concepts in this chapter. what other techniques would you suggest mittelstaedt use to motivate his employees, and why?

 Motivation is, quite objectively, the set of individual and contextual factors that determine the taking of a particular action. That is, it is what moves us to perform a certain task.

Unlike work motivation, organizational motivation is related much more to a business structure than to the employee itself. This is because it refers to the company's set of responsibilities to keep employee motivation high to generate good income.

This type of motivation is very important in the workplace, as an unmotivated professional produces less, earns less, and can even make his or her colleagues less productive, which can be extremely detrimental to the business.

Although not yet applied in part of large national and international companies, incentive strategies can greatly help in redesigning and optimizing work groups, bringing good results for managers, employees and the company at the same time.
