Analysis of the level of motivation and organizational performance in companies in the state of Coahuila.

Abstract

This study analyzes the variable of motivation as a central axis influencing work performance. Specifically, it explores the relationship between work motivation and employee performance within an organization located in the Coahuila. A quantitative methodological approach was employed, using a non-experimental, cross-sectional design. Data were collected through to a sample of 74 employees. The instrument demonstrated high internal consistency (α = 0.917). The results reveal that participants exhibited moderate levels of both motivation and performance. Also, a positive and statistically significant correlation was identified between the two variables (r = 0.728), regression analysis indicated that increases in motivation levels have a significant effect on work performance (β = 0.728, p < 0.001). In conclusion, the findings suggest that the implementation of targeted strategies to enhance motivation—such as appropriate incentives, institutional recognition, and favorable working conditions—can substantially improve individual and collective performance.
