Despite the growth in technology we have seen, the world will always need human capital in its operations, underscoring the need to keep workers motivated all the time. What makes it complicated is the dynamic nature of humans; we have seen how previously held motivation theories seem to have lost track of time and are becoming increasingly outdated every day. This work seeks to depart from the Scientific Management theories that assumed humans behave in defined set standards and reactions by measuring the actual levels of motivation and adjusting them in line with their impact on production in order to achieve the optimum amount of motivation.
