Abstract

A developing body of literature endorses that the sustainment of quality is a vital predictor for the success of educational processes and systems. Teachers who are the important stakeholders in the education system should strive to improve their quality for better student outcomes. Teachers' motivation at work is a basic condition for professional growth and development. This chapter specifically focuses on the need to understand work motivation of teachers in the context of self-determination theory. The chapter also focusses on the role of self-leadership and self-directed professional development in enhancing motivation. In the era of constant changes, it is essential that teachers should have the capability to devise new strategies to lead effectively. To establish a better workplace wellbeing, it is vital to understand the role of self-leadership and self-directed professional development in influencing intrinsic and extrinsic motivation.
