Motivation theories

Content theories
•Looks at what motivates people

•Looks at how are people motivated process
Abraham maslow
Abraham Maslow described five innate human needs, and put forward
certain propositions about the motivating power of each need.

the first level needs must be satisfied only then will the second level needs
have motivating impact.

A need will no longer motivate an individual

Needs are never fully satisfied up to the last element of the hierachy
Hierarchy of needs
Self actualisation • Fulfilment of personal potential

Esteem needs • Need for recognition ,status and respect

Love or social needs • Need for a sense of belonging through interaction

Security • Security of employment and harm

Physiological needs • Basic needs for survival e.g food and shelter
Major limitations of the theory
Not all individual needs can be grouped using the
hierarchy

It is difficult to see which level of needs have been


satisfied

Money is required for each level needs to be satisfied


Fredrick Herzberg

He came up with the two factor theory


for motivation individuals and work

The needs are to avoid unpleasantness


and the need for personal growth
Two factor theory
Hygiene factors
• These are factors at work . Their presence are viewed as mandatory
by the workers and their presence does not really motivate workers
but their absence demotivates workers.
• The look at the environment where workers are.

• They are intrinsic e.g recognition ,responsibility etc

• V is the valence , i.e the degree to which people want an outcome to be achieved
• E is the expectancy , i.e the expectation that their input will result achievement of the desired
results
Theory X and Y – [McGregor]
It is based on finding the best approach to motivation

order to motivate them

recognition e.g in decision making
