Introduction

1.1 Background of the Study

The researcher is interested in the union Bank which was formerly know as Barclay’s bank was a product of the post independence indignation process in Nigeria as part of the abortive banking boom and crash the late 1940s and early so, 1959 saw the biggest country was of coursed triggered off by the establishment of CBN and the era of the free bank period.

This period saw the establishment of the Barclay’s bank domination with others. Although many later fails such as the industrial and commercial bank the Nigeria merchandise bank etc.

Today the Union Bank Plc has emerged as the leader in the banking sector in Nigeria with both the largess number of shareholder and the greater asset base. Even in the face of the unfavourabe business atmosphere and crunching policy the bank has defined all to lead the column of both the new generation bank and its contemporaries.

The question is why all the success stories? It correct that there must have been the product alternative motivation factor, why is the bank not particularly affected like others with frequent staff management disagreement motivation as the root?
