Abstract
The purpose of this study is to explore how employee motivation factors impact on the employee's desire to keep working in SME firms. This study primarily is based on raw data which are collected from 278 employees of SME firms in Bangladesh. Apart from adopting the quantitative method, the Smart PLS 3.0 and SPSS V23 were utilised for analysing the gathered primary data. Furthermore, we predicted ten hypotheses in this study. Our findings assure that a positive and significant relationship among working conditions, salary and incentive, and job stability with employee motivation is sustained which indicates a direct relationship on the desire of employees to continue working in this sector. This study did not find any conventional relationship between the behaviour of presidents and subordinates with employee motivation. This study further demonstrates that employee motivation does not mediate the relationship between behaviour of presidents and subordinates with the desire to continue working.
期刊介绍：
There is a burgeoning development of theories but unfortunately very few make it into management practice. Explanations for this are many and varied but can be classified into two major reasons: theories that are too narrow and far removed from the realities and intricacies of the world of practice, and second sound theories which are unfortunately written and discussed in a manner that confines them to forever live in the confines of academic corridors. IJMP focuses on the pragmatics of informing management action and practice. This requires translating existing theories into forms that are relevant, digestible and amenable to practical action as well as developing new insights by developing and examining leading edge managerial practices to enhance organisational performance.
