Abstract
The rapid advancement of technology has revolutionized the traditional workplace, leading to the widespread adoption of remote work arrangements. This study aims to explore the impact of remote work on employee motivation and productivity in the technology sector during the era of digital transformation. The research is motivated by the increasing trend of remote work practices and the need to understand its implications on employee engagement and performance in a technology-driven environment. The study begins with a comprehensive review of relevant literature on remote work, employee motivation, productivity, and digital transformation. The literature review highlights the key theoretical frameworks, empirical findings, and gaps in existing research that set the foundation for this study. Methodologically, this research adopts a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative data collection techniques. The research design includes surveys, interviews, and case studies conducted among employees and managers in technology companies to gather insights into their experiences with remote work and its impact on motivation and productivity. The findings from the study reveal a nuanced relationship between remote work, employee motivation, and productivity. While remote work offers flexibility and autonomy that can enhance motivation, it also presents challenges related to communication, collaboration, and work-life balance that can affect productivity. The study identifies factors such as technology infrastructure, leadership support, and organizational culture that influence the effectiveness of remote work arrangements in the technology sector. The discussion of findings delves into the implications of the research results for both practitioners and academics. Practical recommendations are provided for technology companies to optimize remote work practices and support employee motivation and productivity in the digital age. The study also contributes to the academic literature by offering insights into the complex dynamics of remote work in a technology-driven context. In conclusion, this thesis underscores the importance of understanding the impact of remote work on employee motivation and productivity in the technology sector. As organizations continue to navigate the challenges and opportunities of digital transformation, insights from this study can inform strategies for leveraging remote work as a tool for enhancing employee engagement and performance in a rapidly evolving workplace landscape.
