How does job satisfaction contribute and lead to increase in

employee’s performance

1.     How does job satisfaction contribute and lead to increase in

employee’s performance? Be able to cite an example.

Tasks, duties, responsibilities, relationships, incentives, and rewards

make up a job. Job satisfaction is the quality, condition, or amount of
happiness that a person experiences as a result of his or her numerous
interests and attitudes. .And as an employer one of your our objectives is to
maximise the potential of our employees and to achieve it; we must satisfy
them first to their needs and wants. To satisfy the needs and wants of our
employee we should be able to create a team of nice, talented, and creative
people, provided with their needs based on the Hierarchy of needs by
Maslow. By this we could be able to satisfy our employee and made them
motivated to do their best in doing their specific task and the goal of the
organization due to high job satisfaction is associated to better productivity,
which is linked to higher earnings and achieving our set goals. Moreover,
employees that are happy and comfortable in their jobs are considerably more
likely to pursue their responsibilities with passion and devotion. For example;
As a School Administrator I was able to provide a office that is safe, and
conducive for my teachers where they feel comfortable, safe and love and
also I was able to give time their basic needs by this my employees/teacher
are motivated and goal oriented to do their task. By this situation we can
assess that a motivated and satisfied employee are much or more productive
in doing their tasks.
