Motivation• Definition: Motivation is defined as the process
that initiates, guides and maintains goal-oriented behaviors.
• Key elements to the definition:– Effort– Persistence– Direction/goal orientation
Links between Motivation and Performance
• Performance is an evaluation of the results of a person’s behavior. It involves determining how well or poorly a person has accomplished a task or done a job.
• Motivation is only one factor among many that contributes to a worker’s job performance.
• Other contributing factors:– Personality and ability– Task difficulty– Resource availability– Working conditions– Chance or luck
Basic motivational concepts
• Extrinsic Motivation— drive to action that (as opposed to intrinsic motivation) springs from outside influences instead of from one’s own feelings.
• Intrinsic Motivation— stimulation that drives an individual to adopt or change a behavior for his or her own internal satisfaction or fulfillment.
• Reward— a thing given in recognition of service, effort, or achievement.
• Extrinsic rewards— a reward that is expected by an individual and does not lead to his or her greater satisfaction.
• Intrinsic rewards— an outcome that gives an individual personal satisfaction such as that derived from a job well done.
Theories of Motivation
• Content Theories– consider need, existence, relatedness, growth, achievement,
hygiene and motivating factors.
– Need theories, ERG theory, Need and Achievement theory, Two- factor theory.
• Process Theories– recognize variables that go into motivation, and their
interrelationship.– Expectancy theory, Reinforcement theory, Goal- setting
theory.
Maslow’s Hierarchy Theory of Needs
Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs
• Physiological Needs: Basic needs for things such as food, water, and shelter that must be met in order for an individual to survive.
• Safety Needs: Needs for security, stability, and a safe environment.
• Belongingness Needs: Needs for social interaction, friendship, affection, and love.
• Esteem Needs: The need to feel good about oneself and one’s capabilities, to be respected by others, and to receive recognition and appreciation.
• Self-Actualization Needs: The need to realize one’s full potential as a human being.
Herzberg’s Two-Factor Theory
Hygiene Factor - work condition related to dissatisfaction caused by discomfort or pain– maintenance factor– contributes to employee’s feeling not dissatisfied– contributes to absence of complaints
Motivation Factor - work condition related to the satisfaction of the need for psychological growth– job enrichment– leads to superior performance & effort
Herzberg’s Two Factors Theory

Similarities
• The basic similarity between these two Theories is that they both assume that specific needs affect behavior.
• Maslow’s physiological and safety needs is equal to Herzberg’s hygiene factor whereas Maslow’s esteem, social and self actualization needs are equal to Herzberg’s Motivational factors.
