The researcher was employed Systematic Random Sampling Technique techniques to distribute the questionnaire to the respondents. Data was collected by using both closed and open ended self-administered questionnaires and a total of one hundred sixty nine (169) questionnaires were returned. The results were analyzed and interpreted using SPSS software version 20. The scores are interpreted quantitatively and open-ended suggestions are interpreted qualitatively.

But, no relationship existed between democratic leadership and autocratic leadership styles. Linear regression analysis also indicated that at 58.2% variance in employee motivation can be predicted from the combination of all Leadership Styles Dimensions. This indicates that combination of the predictors significantly combined together to predict employee motivation. The study found that majority of the respondents was motivated with most variables of intrinsic motivational practices in the organization.
