Motivation and productivity are two interrelated concepts, the latter fuels the former and the former is the ending result of the latter. Productivity is a measure of performance to show how effective an organization can turn its resources into products (or services) intended. Measure Productivity is known as a relative measure despite its many forms, since being used for comparing the effectiveness of many different entities. These may be individuals, countries or organizations. Productivity can show how effective an organization can transform the inputs into the outputs. Usually it is expressed as a ratio output/input in the manufacturing area. What Multi-factor Measurement is Productivity may be stated as multi-factor measures, partial measures or overall measures. Partial productivity is single input. (for calculate products (or services) produced per hour, per plant or per worker etc.) Multi-factor productivity measures can show the use of multiple inputs (for example output units in the total of labor, energy, capital or production units in the total of labor and materials). What Productivity Motivation is Productivity motivation is in relation to the way for motivating a person is performing an activity or task. Improvement programs for workers are based on the way to motivate workers to improve productivity. Some organizations nowadays offer their workers the recreational activities and sports, leisure and fitness activities and several programs orienting to family. This approach to increase the performance of employees can capitalize on quality measures such as value, quality circles, Total Quality Management (aka TMQ), performance and innovation standards (on-time delivery, profitability, customer satisfaction, efficiency) as well as bring a variety of team and personal incentives and rewards. General Knowledge of Mutual Reward Theory Mutual reward theory (MRT) is known as a very incentive program to help their employees of an organizations or company achieve their goals. This is achieved while meeting production goals of the company. The greatest rewards are obtained when profits are optimal for all people. Generally, productivity is proportional to the success degree of MRT directly. How to Calculate the Growth of Productivity The growth of productivity is known as the measure of the sum of services and products produced within a given period of time. First, it is necessary to determine a standard. Next, the standard (or benchmark) can become the measure against that most of productions in the future will be measured against. The annual growth rate In a country is being observed. The growth rate of productivity may be proportional to the people’s wealth directly. If the productivity levels increase, so the buying power of people increase too. The sum economy can benefit from the increase in turn. Most valuable resource Many researchers of productivity agree that people are the most valuable of all resources of the world. It has been suggested training and education are responsible to raise the productivity levels of individuals. The researchers of productivity also suggested that achieving expertise through training and education could be maximized by the development of the ones wanting to work and learn and improve continuously at their potential.
