The Effects of Employee Motivation and Maintenance Systems on Organizational Effectiveness of Oromia Broadcasting Networks

Abstract

_{The objective of this study was to examine the Effect of Employee Motivation and Maintenance Systems on the Organizational Effectiveness of Oromia Broadcasting Networks (OBN). The study used descriptive and explanatory research design which incorporated both quantitative and qualitative research approaches. A stratified Random sampling method was used and collected by using both closed and open ended self-administered questionnaires. The results are analyzed and interpreted using SPSS software version 20. The Finding of the Research indicated that Employee Motivation and Maintenance systems have an Effect on Organizational Effectiveness. All organizational effectiveness practices undertaken in the organization were not able to motivate its employees to attain their organizational effectiveness. The results of Pearson correlation showed a significant positive relationship between Employee Motivation, Employee Maintenance and Organizational Effectiveness at (p-value <0.01) and linear regression analysis also indicated that an Organizational Effectiveness can be predicted from the combination of both employee motivation and maintenance systems. Furthermore, the finding also indicated a significant difference in the level of employee motivation and maintenance systems of between managers and non-managers, and between core departments and supporting departments of OBN. There were no good rewards and maintenance systems practices have been practiced in the organization to motivate and maintain its employees which have an effect on the overall organizational effectiveness. Therefore, the result recommends the organization to highly motivate and maintain employees since the more the employees are motivated to tasks accomplishment, the higher will be the organizational effectiveness and success. Finally, Since it is difficult to undertake research on all areas of HR at once, this Research proposes for further studies to be carried out on other areas of HR that were not covered in the study and in other branches of the organization.}
