Today’s increasingly competitive business world implies that a highly motivated workforce is vital for any organization seeking to achieve good results. However, workers’ and managers’ goals may not be always precisely the same. Therefore, what managers must aim for is getting the individual’s goals as close as possible to those of the organization. Motivating individuals means creating an environment in which they can satisfy their goals. Therefore, the motivation of the workforce can be a fundamental challenge for an organization’s management. The present study examines the motivation of the workforce and focuses in a comparison analysis between the hotels in Greece and other countries. Chapter 1 refers to the conceptual framework of motivation. In Chapter 2 the modern motivation theories are presented. Chapter 3 refers to the various leadership theories and the motivation techniques in practice and chapter 4 presents the situation in hotel industry. Finally, a comparison analysis of the motivational factors between the employers in Greece, Russia, USA, China and Taiwan is presented in chapter 5.
