Summary/Abstract: Management literature frequently refers to individual motivation and performance at the workplace as two interrelated concepts. The current paper takes this as its starting point. The aim of the paper is to briefly analyze how motivation can generate performance, how performance can generate motivation and how this relationship can explain both the theory and the practical consequences of the motivation <> performance dynamics. To this end, qualitative and quantitative research methods were used to investigate the perception of about 300 Romanian employees. The conclusive model which resulted from the research offers valuable insights into the factors that can influence and determine both motivation and performance at the workplace (in order of importance). It also looks at how management teams make better strategic decisions when they rely on what is most efficient for their employees in terms of the impact of motivation and performance.
