The purpose of this paper is to explore the relationship between employee self-efficacy and employee motivation. Employee self-efficacy refers to the assessment of an employee's confidence and ability to perform a specific task or achieve a specific goal, while employee motivation refers to the intrinsic or extrinsic factors that stimulate employee behaviour. By reviewing and analysing existing studies, this paper summarises the positive relationship between employee self-efficacy and employee motivation and provides some insights for practical suggestions.
