Motivation

What is MOTIVATION?

Motivation is a reason for actions, willingness, and goals.

Motivation is derived from the word motive, or a need that requires satisfaction.

An individual's motivation may be inspired by outside forces (extrinsic motivation) or by themselves (intrinsic motivation).

Motivation has been considered one of the most important reasons to move forward.

Motivation results from the interaction of both conscious and unconscious factors.

Maslow’s hierarchy of needs

Maslow's theory is one of the most widely discussed theories of motivation. Abraham Maslow believed that man is inherently good and argued that individuals possess a constantly growing inner drive that has great potential. The needs hierarchy system is a commonly used scheme for classifying human motives.

The American motivation psychologist Abraham H. Maslow developed the hierarchy of needs consisting of five hierarchic classes. According to Maslow, people are motivated by unsatisfied needs.

Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory can be summarized as follows : Human beings have wants and desires which, when unsatisfied, may influence behavior. Differing levels of importance to human life are reflected in a hierarchical structure of needs. Needs at higher levels in the hierarchy are held in abeyance until lower level needs are at least minimally satisfied. Needs at higher levels of the hierarchy are associated with individuality, humanness and psychological health.

Herzberg’s two-factor theory

Frederick Herzberg's two-factor theory concludes that certain factors in the workplace result in job satisfaction (motivators), while others (hygiene factors), if absent, lead to dissatisfaction. The name hygiene factors is used because, like hygiene, the presence will not improve health, but absence can cause health deterioration.

Some claimed motivating factors (satisfiers) were: achievement, recognition, work itself, responsibility, advancement and growth. Some hygiene factors (dissatisfiers) were: company policy, supervision, working conditions, interpersonal relations, salary, status, job security and personal life.
