This article explores the relationship between employee motivation, goal-setting practices, and organizational
performance through a case study of “Merit Chemicals,” a company operating in Uzbekistan’s chemical sector. The findings
indicate that clearly defined goals, frequent managerial communication, and positive reinforcement significantly enhance
employee motivation. Departments with structured motivational policies and performance-linked objectives demonstrated
higher productivity, faster inventory turnover, and improved task completion rates. The study applies goal-setting theory
to the context of a post-Soviet industrial environment and highlights the managerial implications of motivational practices
on firm performance. The article offers actionable recommendations for corporate leaders and policymakers seeking to
boost productivity through behavioral strategies.
