Contribution of Staff Motivation Towards Organizational Development: A Case of Integrated Justice Centre, Kinondoni, Tanzania
Abstract
This study was conducted at the Integrated Justice Centre in Kinondoni, Tanzania, with 75 respondents participating selected through purposive sampling from a target of 94 employees working at the Integrated Justice Center, Kinondoni. The specific objective was to assess the contribution of staff motivation to organizational development. The study was guided by Maslow’s Theory of Hierarchical Needs and Alderfer’s ERG Theory. A case study design was employed using quantitative data collection methods, including questionnaires. Data was analyzed quantitatively using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). The findings revealed that well-tailored HRM policies significantly contribute to staff motivation by clearly defining motivation criteria, incentives, and promotion models. Effective motivation practices, such as recognition and incentives, have a substantial impact on employee enthusiasm and organizational growth. Motivation was found to enhance employee commitment, with higher commitment levels observed when clear motivation standards were set. Additionally, extrinsic motivation was shown to positively influence employee performance. The study concludes that motivation is crucial for improving employee performance and organizational growth. It is recommended that the organization implement well-defined HRM policies, maintain transparent motivation systems, facilitate in-service training, revise retirement packages, and empower employees with authority.
