“What factors in the workplace motivate people?”
• Content Perspectives of Motivation

Assumptions of Maslow’s
Hierarchy
Movement up the Pyramid
•Individuals cannot move to the next higher level until
all needs at the current (lower) level are satisfied.

Content Theories
• McGregor’s Theory X and Theory Y
– Theory X
• Assumes that workers have little ambition, dislike
work, avoid responsibility, and require close
supervision.
– Theory Y
• Assumes that workers can exercise self-direction,
desire responsibility, and like to work.
– Motivation is maximized by participative
decision making, interesting jobs, and good
group relations.
Content Theories
• Herzberg’s Motivation-Hygiene Theory
– Job satisfaction and job dissatisfaction are
created by different factors.
• Hygiene factors: extrinsic (environmental) factors
that create job dissatisfaction.
• Motivators: intrinsic (psychological) factors that
create job satisfaction.
– Attempted to explain why job satisfaction does
not result in increased performance.
• The opposite of satisfaction is not dissatisfaction, but
rather no satisfaction.

Dissatisfaction
McClelland’s Needs Theory
• Three-Needs Theory
– There are three major acquired needs that are
major motives in work.
– Need for achievement (nAch)
• The drive to excel and succeed
– Need for power (nPow)
• The need to influence the behavior of others
– Need of affiliation (nAff)
• The desire for interpersonal relationships

nAch, nAff, and nPow

Process Perspectives of Motivation
• Why people choose certain behavioral
options to satisfy their needs and how they
evaluate their satisfaction after they have
attained their goals.
• Process perspectives of Motivation
– Goal Setting Theory
– Equity Theory
– Expectancy Theory
Goal-Setting Theory
A Process Perspective
Basic Premise: That specific and difficult goals, with self-generated
feedback, lead to higher performance.
• Difficulty
– Extent to which a goal is challenging and requires effort.
• Specificity
– Clarity and precision of the goal.

Reinforcement Theory
Argues that behavior is a function of its

providing (controlling) consequences.
•Reinforced behavior tends to be repeated.

characteristics and their 2. Task identity

and work outcomes. 3. Task significance
4. Autonomy
5. Feedback
Job Design Theory (cont’d)
• Job Characteristics Model
– Jobs with skill variety, task identity, task significance,
autonomy, and for which feedback of results is given,
directly affect three psychological states of
employees:
• Knowledge of results
• Meaningfulness of work
• Personal feelings of responsibility for results
– Increases in these psychological states result in
increased motivation, performance, and job
satisfaction.

Job Design Theory (cont’d)
Skill Variety
The degree to which a job requires a variety of
different activities (how may different skills are
used in a given day, week, month?).
Task Identity
The degree to which the job requires completion of
a whole and identifiable piece of work (from
beginning to end).
Task Significance
The degree to which the job has a substantial
impact on the lives or work of other people.
Job Design Theory (cont’d)
Autonomy
The degree to which the job provides substantial
freedom and discretion to the individual in
scheduling the work and in determining the
procedures to be used in carrying it out.
Feedback
The degree to which carrying out the work activities
required by a job results in the individual obtaining
direct and clear information about the effectiveness
of his or her performance.
Examples of High and Low Job Characteristics
Characteristics Examples
Skill Variety
• High variety The owner-operator of a garage who does electrical repair, rebuilds engines,
does body work, and interacts with customers
• Low variety A bodyshop worker who sprays paint eight hours a day
Task Identity
• High identity A cabinetmaker who designs a piece of furniture, selects the wood, builds the
object, and finishes it to perfection
• Low identity A worker in a furniture factory who operates a lathe to make table legs
Task Significance
• High significance Nursing the sick in a hospital intensive care unit
• Low significance Sweeping hospital floors
Autonomy
• High autonomy A telephone installer who schedules his or her own work for the day, and
decides on the best techniques for a particular installation
• Low autonomy A telephone operator who must handle calls as they come according to a
routine, highly specified procedure
Feedback
• High feedback An electronics factory worker who assembles a radio and then tests it to
determine if it operates properly
• Low feedback An electronics factory worker who assembles a radio and then routes it to a
quality control inspector who tests and adjusts it
