1. Motivating workers is a major concern in work place so
as to ensure maximum production in the organization.
The one at the helm of affairs is called head-master. He motivates the staff to
work through the provision of incentives like chalk, textbooks and teaching aids.
The head-teacher recommends staff for promotion. If a staff feels that the
management is indifferent to this aspiration, he will be less dedicated to achieving
the goals of the school.
Teachers and students should be positively motivated. This will encourage them to
put more effect in the teaching and learning activities that go on in the schools.
A’s rewards less A’s costs B’s rewards less B’s costs
A’s investments = B’s investments
