dc.description.abstractMotivation theories propose methods that will be effective in providing higher productivity from workers and make them feel more satisfied in their job. Maslow devised a heirarchy to represent the needs of an individual. Herzberg divided motivational needs into two factors. The learned needs theory proposed that an individual's needs can be learned. The expectancy theory states that individuals expect certain rewards for their work. Adam'1 theory of inequity allows that the existence of an inequity situation will motivate an individual to resolve that inequity. The goal motivation theory supports the idea that clearly defined goals will motivate people to achieve the goals.
