Abstract
AbstractThe paper examined the relationship between mentoring, motivation, and achievement of organizational set-goals of the six public tertiary institutions in Lagos State, Nigeria at the time of this study. Structured and self-developed copies of questionnaires were used to obtain data for the study. The study reported a positive and significant relationship between mentoring and organizational set-goals (r = 0.353, p < 0.01) as well as a positive and significant relationship between financial motivation (r = 0.736, p < 0.01) and non-financial motivation (r = 0.687, p < 0.01) with achievement of organizational set-goals among libraries of public tertiary institutions in Lagos state. However, the study confirmed that mentoring: B = 0.415, t = 2.873, p = 0.01 < 0.05 and motivation: B = 0.652, t=-3.414, p = 0.00 < 0.05; contributed significantly to the achievement of organizational set-goals of libraries of public tertiary institutions in Lagos State but motivation (B = 0.652) contributed more than mentoring to the achievement of organizational set-goals. Against these findings, the study recommended that mentoring should be given priority in the studied tertiary institutions in Lagos State in particular and Nigeria as a whole while efforts should further be put in place to ensure continuous staff motivation as these two variables are capable of strengthening the achievement of organizational set-goals.Keywords: Effectivenesshuman resourcesmentoringmotivationorganizational set-goalstertiary institutions in Lagos State Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.
