A Comparative Study: - Expectation of Individual Need with Achievement of Organizational Need/ Goal.

A Comparative Study: - Expectation of Individual Need with Achievement of Organizational Need/ Goal.

Every Organization is established to achieve its Goal. It may be either profit motive or Service Motive.  To achieve Organization Goal, one of the key Components which plays vital role is Human Capital. Since, Human Capital or human Resource are only the factor which mobilize all the resources of Organization.

Model Used: - Maslow’s theory of Hierarchy.

On the basis of Maslow’s theory of Hierarchy, need of Human has categorized on following three things.

a.       Need of Sex.  ( Affection ,Love, family, Emotion come on this)                       

b.      Need of Money     ( Direct and Indirect Compensation on this)

c.       Need of  Power ( Personal Self Respect and Position Come on this)

 

a. Need of Sex:- A person need this from certain age to through out of his life. Due to religion wise, social norms, and other factor, people has its own view towards this need.

In Context of Nepal, as we are follower of Hindu Religion as well as context of Social Perspective it is suppressed in our country.

As per married life, it has been seen there are two types of staff (employee) in organization.

a.       Ethical towards Spouse/ family members after Marriage

b.      Non- Ethical towards Spouse / family members after Marriage.

Relationship between Ethical / Unethical person and working in team:-

An Unethical person generally believes in giving time to friend circle rather than family. Drinking wine daily wise, party, dance, enjoyment, staying late for office intentionally are some common Characteristics of this kind of people. This kind of people generally believes in use and throw strategy. He don’t have feeling towards the employee about long term retention. He just see the employee how to use him and when appropriate time come how to throw him.

 

While In Case of ethical person, it has been seen this type of person give more emphasis to family members. This type of employee want to go home on time, want to spend for any party with family members. Generally this type of employee don't want to spend much more money with friend circle.

Implication to Manager: - A manager should understand the nature of person as per the organisation. A unethical person is not appropriate for administrative job but good for marketing, since unethical person are excellent in good communication and to use and throw human. They are very much good to obtain market Information, history of others as they are spending time in group.

Close monitoring of Integrity issues is necessary for this type of employee, since this kind of employee always need money for enjoyment, always money is needed from them.

While in case of ethical person, it has been seen this type of employee are good in administrative type of Jobs, since they want to work for survival of family members. This kind of employee want to perform only the task which has been assign to them from others. They want to go home as the office time ends. Close monitoring of dedication towards work is necessary from the immediate line manager.

 

Need of Money: - Money is medium of exchange. It can’t buy all thing but can buy many thing. Every individual need money either for basic survival or to live a luxurious life. Almost we Service Holder (Staff), we are working in organization for survival of our family. So, one of the important factor of Motivation is Good Compensation. Compensation may be direct or indirect.

 

Implication to Manager:- A manager should understand that human needs money. He should understand this and should have empathy towards its employee. He should not try to cheat to give proper compensation to the employee.

Regarding to the Direct Compensation, two things should be understood by the manager.

a.       Proper communication of amount (money) to be paid before giving job (work).

b.      Payment given after work but communication is not done before giving job.

 

          The first method is best way to deal. In the first method both the employee and employer are clear about give and take of money. While in the second case, both are unclear about give and take. Some time employee many expect more after working and when he get less amount as per his expectation frustration can come. So first method is good one.

 

 

         Beside it there is always controversy between Organization Pay and individual expectation. In this case, Standard of payment can be set with the financial parameter. ( Example :- Top Organization with higher profit generated organization should compare with top Organization, medium profit generated organization should compare with medium and lower profit generate organization with lower ). But it has been seen, In Newspaper, top level management feel proud/ esteem to show the best performance ( Higher in all aspect) in media but while  fixing  compensation they want to give direct compensation ( or compare themselves) with  least growth organization which leads is dissatisfaction in  lower and mid level employee. Since lower and mid level employee are the main source or who works for organization in ground level and this kind of employee have always perception, our organization has generated huge profit, this year we will get huge Compensation ( Bonus, Welfare, Rise in salary). ( HR can learn about direct compensation from the cases of  Nepal Oil Corporation).

 

Regarding Indirect Compensation:- 

This is one of the most challenging, undefined and cannot be understood unless one person don’t express.  But Individual feel discomfort to express about indirect benefits. This need is seen is all Nepalese citizenship from Lower to Higher (As our Hindu religion we believes on Respect more than Money). But also as per organization need, Higher need of Indirect compensation is seen in Upper level staff. As per organization hierarchy (Position), Indirect benefits should be given more also HR should also try to express Indirect compensation through any media (Like email, newspaper, official face book post). Generally it has been seen, today every activity of Individuals are been made viral or shared with friend circle through social site page ( Example, Happy birthday wish to friends, Mother Days , Father Days, respect given picture is shared in social sites) . So HR should try to express indirect benefits through social sites.

Need of Power (Respect):- Every human need respect. Respect can be divided into two parts.

a.             Self-Respect:- Need of Namaskar, Indirect compensation comes on it.

b.            Need of Interest to be in Position. Eg:- To be manager, Hod.

 

Employee who are simple or straight person they belief on self-respect more. This kind of employee feel happy when they are given greeting like Namastey , Namaskar. This kind of employee believe on words (They don’t like scolding or bad words from line manager of top level employee. They believe on individual feedback rather than group feedback) .

 

Implication: - Making the work done by others is called Management. In this process (making
work done by others) , Manager should give respect ( Namaskar, positive words and feedback like you are doing good, you are our organization member) to the employee who need self-respect. And also Money should be also given side by side.

 

Need of Interest: - Employee who are political or egoistic in nature come on this. Beside it this kind of employee by hook or crook they want to stay on position more. This kind of employee use more brain decision than emotional decision. They can do / sacrifice anything for the position.

 

Top Level understand that his Juniors, subordinates may have also interest to be in top Position like AM, DM,, Manger . So it should be taken positive and a manager should also give chance to his subordinates or opportunity for the position.

 

Conclusion:-  Looking our Country Scenario, Our Religion, Our Social Environment we Nepalese individual spend life to achieve Sex, Money and Power. If we compare with Maslow’s theory of Hierarchy, In Physiological need Sex and Money is required. However we can also say money is required up to esteem need. Since In today's modern society, people have respect towards people who are financially strong. In the actualization need every person need Respect a lot. So all per the stages of Human life, organization should try to treat its human resources or employee for better productivity/ result.
