  4. Early Theories of Motivation

  5. Hierarchy of Needs Theory • Proposed by Abraham Maslow in his 1943 paper "A Theory of Human Motivation" in Psychological Review. • Maslow studied the healthiest 1% of the college student population • Maslow's theory was fully expressed in his 1954 book Motivation and Personality [ Source: ]

  6. Hierarchy of Needs Theory

  7. Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs Self-Actualization and Self-fulfillment Needs Belonging and Social Needs (affection, friendship, belonging) Safety and Security Needs (Protection, order, stability) Esteem and Status Needs (Prestige, status, self esteem) Physiological Needs (Food, water, air, shelter, sex)

  8. Development of Maslow’s Model • Clayton Alderferredefined Maslow’s model to align it with empirical research • The revised model is labeled ERG theory

  10. Theory X and Theory Y • Created and developed by Douglas McGregor at the MIT Sloan School of Management in the 1960s • Describes perceptions managers hold on their employees, not the way they generally behave • It is attitude not attributes [ Source: ]

  11. Theory X and Theory Y

  12. Two-Factor Theory • Developed by Frederick Herzberg, a psychologist, who theorized that job satisfaction and job dissatisfaction act independently of each other • It distinguishes between Hygiene factors and Motivation factors [ Source: ]

  13. Two-Factor Theory

  14. Herzberg’s Two-factor Theory MotivationalFactors • Nature of work • Possibility of achievement • Possibility of growth • Nature of responsibility • Carrier Advancement • Amount of Recognition Increases the level of motivation • Status • Relationship supervisors • Peer relations • Relations with subordinates • Quality of supervision • Job Security • Working conditions • Pay Maintenance Factors Maintains the level of motivation

  15. Contemporary Theories of Motivation

  16. McCLELLAND’s Theory of Needs • Created by psychologist David McClelland • Attempt to explain how the needs for achievement, power and affiliation affect the actions of people from a managerial context

  17. McCLELLAND’s Theory of Needs

  18. Cognitive Evaluation Theory • Designed to explain the effects of external consequences on internal motivation • introduction of extrinsic rewards for work effort that was previously rewarded intrinsically will tend to decrease the overall level of a person’s motivation. • Self-Concordance – the degree to which a person’s reasons for perusing a goal are consistent with his/her interest and core values.
