Athena tricked Hector by turning into his favorite brother, Deiphobos. As Deiphobos, Athena told Hector to stand and fight Achilles since "he" would be by Hector's side. Therefore, with the additional courage gained by knowing his brother was at his side, Hector decided to stand against Achilles instead of going back into Troy.
The goddess Athena was the one who deceived him. Zeus had decreed Hector's death early on as part of Achilles' retribution, so Athena's deception came in the form of Deiphobus, inspiring false courage in Hector and essentially sealing his fateful demise.
Athena pretended to be Deiphobos, one of Hector's brothers. She made a speech in the form of Deiphobos about the need for Hector to stand against Achilles. Hector believed her and decided to fight Achilles.
Athena holds a grudge against Troy because one of its princes, Paris, did not vote for her as the fairest goddess. This is why she attempts to work against Troy. Helping Achilles kill Hector insured the fall of Troy as Hector was probably the only reason it lasted for as long as it did.
She has a bias for the Achaens and she even went so far as to deceive Hector so he could be killed by Achilles

In Homer's Iliad, the Aegis is the shield or breastplate of Zeus and Athena. It does not create any symbols, but it is frequently depicted as showing the severed head of Medusa.
Athena's motivation in the Iliad mainly came from a story that was not included in the Iliad. Eris, the goddess of discord, gave a golden apple at the wedding of Peleus and Thetis (Achilles's parents) to be awarded to the fairest goddess. The three goddesses in contention were Hera, Aphrodite, and of course Athena. Zeus, for once being smart, refused to pick the winner so the unlucky chooser ended up being Paris, a prince of Troy. Paris picked Aphrodite because she promised him Helen. Athena and Hera were both very mad and so helped the Achaeans or Greeks in the Trojan War. This is basically the motivation behind all of Athena's actions, to bring about the downfall of Troy.

Hermes was sent to tell Paris to choose the fairest Goddess (either Aphrodite, Hera, or Athena.) This argument about the fairest started when Eris, who didn't get invited to a wedding, rolled a golden apple for the fairest Goddess.
