Background of the Study
Employee motivation is a critical factor that influences job satisfaction, productivity, and overall organizational performance. Motivation refers to the internal drive that compels employees to work towards organizational goals, and it is heavily influenced by both intrinsic and extrinsic factors (Keller, 2023). In financial institutions such as Fidelity Bank, motivation strategies are key to ensuring that employees are engaged, committed, and productive, which ultimately contributes to the success of the organization (Adedeji & Olayemi, 2024).
Fidelity Bank, with its extensive network in Nigeria, operates in an industry where competition is fierce, and employee performance directly impacts customer satisfaction and profitability. In Kogi State, where the bank is actively expanding, employee motivation strategies such as recognition, rewards, career development programs, and work-life balance initiatives play an essential role in maintaining high levels of job satisfaction among employees (Fayemi & Alabi, 2024). Despite the significance of motivation, there are concerns about how effectively Fidelity Bank implements these strategies and their direct effects on job satisfaction.
This study aims to assess the motivation strategies used by Fidelity Bank in Kogi State and investigate their impact on employee job satisfaction. It will also analyze how these strategies contribute to the overall performance of the bank.
Statement of the Problem
Employee motivation is a key determinant of job satisfaction, yet Fidelity Bank in Kogi State faces challenges in fully implementing effective motivation strategies. Inadequate recognition, limited career growth opportunities, and insufficient rewards could potentially lead to employee dissatisfaction, reduced performance, and high turnover. The problem lies in the insufficient understanding of the relationship between motivation strategies and job satisfaction within the context of Fidelity Bank. This study seeks to address the gap in knowledge by exploring how motivational strategies influence employee satisfaction and performance in the bank.
