Employee Motivation Strategies and Organization Performance: A Case Study of Ifakara Health Institute Head Office Dar es Salaam

This study attempts to evaluate employee motivation strategies and organization performance at Ifakara Health Institute (IHI). This study mostly identifies motivational strategies which are present at IHI; examined job performance, job satisfaction and identify some of the motivation strategies which will lead to organization performance; the study recommends some improvements to motivation strategies in IHI. This research is descriptive research design and it adopt quantitative research paradigm with the help of SPSS to analyze data. Most of the source of data used is primary data and few secondary data. A sample design used is stratified random sampling technique. The result of this study shows that there are motivation strategies such salary, incentive, retirement benefit and management. Also the organization performance in Ifakara Health Institute is good although motivation satisfaction level is low. These lead too many workers to develop negative perception on the organization. I recommend to IHI management to have time to time implementation of motivation strategies which will results to super organization performance, also there should be an offer of competitive salary in comparison to real job market. Also mode of contract has to be changed that it has to reflect the project life time, if the project is running for five years then the employee has to be given a contract of a project life time. I also recommend improving staff benefits to be better than of the other competitive institutions. Lastly motivation strategies should be target to all staffs based on their needs and desires
