Motivation is the process of encouraging people to accomplish goals. It comes from both internal desires (intrinsic) and external rewards/incentives (extrinsic). Motivation is important because it leads to improved employee performance and productivity, helps achieve organizational goals, builds relationships, and reduces turnover. Managers are responsible for motivating subordinates through both financial and non-financial means like recognition, opportunities for growth, and engaging meaningful work. Proper motivation results in maximum utilization of human resources.

This thesis examines the impact of team leadership on organizational performance, moderated by organizational size. A survey was administered to 268 managers in Pakistan's telecommunications sector. Results of normality tests and correlation analysis show that organizational size significantly moderates the relationship between all facets of team leadership (leadership styles, establishing team structure, decision making, managing conflict, building commitment, sharing information) and organizational performance (business performance, organizational effectiveness). Correlation coefficients indicate team leadership has a strong, positive relationship with organizational performance. Additionally, organizational size positively correlates with both team leadership factors and organizational performance. This suggests organizational size plays a moderating role between team leadership and organizational performance.
