Motivation
MAN201: Organizational Behaviour Class 7
vMotivation = (Intensity + Direction + Persistence) → Goal attainment
vIntensity = the concentration and application of effort
vDirection = where or for what purpose the effort is being concentrated
and applied
vPersistence = how long the concentration and application of effort
occurs for, and how much resolve is shown when goal attainment
proves difficult

desired outcomes of the particular organization.
vWhether and how the particular goal is attained also consequently affects
subsequent motivation; creating a feedback loop.
