Abstract: Abstract Objective of the Study: The present study conceptually develops the construct called Work Motivation as a mediator in between Organization’s Culture, Career Development, Rewards and Job Satisfaction is based on Social Exchange Theory (SET). The method is based on the integrative review of previous research to develop a conceptual model that links macro factors from the organization with micro psychological antecedents of job satisfaction. From the results, Organization’s Culture, Career Development and Rewards are direct contributors to Job Satisfaction although conceptual gaps and inconsistencies in past studies suggest the potential presence on indirect pathway through work motivation. Work motivation is the psychological process that changes supportive norms, developmental possibilities, and equitable reward into favourable attitudes and job satisfaction. What is most novel about this study is the fact that three major constructs of the organization are integrated in a single framework mediated by work motivation an area that has not been comprehensively explored. From a practical standpoint, the model conceptually highligts the importance of creating supportive environment, offering structured cereer davelopment, and ensuring faier reward systems to keep motivation level high at the workplace where employees are satisfied with job.
