 Introduction to The HygieneMOTIVATION

Description Theory
• We have basic needs (hygiene needs)
which, when not met, cause us to be
dissatisfied. Meeting these needs does not
make us satisfied - it merely prevents us
from becoming dissatisfied.

• The 'hygiene' word is deliberately medical

as it is an analogy of the need to do
something that is necessary, but which
does contribute towards making the
patient well (it only stops them getting
sick).
International Church
of Christ, Nigeria
 MOTIVATION

There is a separate set of needs

which, when resolved, do make us
satisfied.

These are called Motivators

International Church
of Christ, Nigeria
 The Research
In these studies employees where
asked what pleased and displeased
them about their work.

Herzberg found that the factors

causing job satisfaction (and
presumably motivation) were
different from those causing job
dissatisfaction.
International Church
of Christ, Nigeria
He developed the motivation-
hygiene theory to explain these
results.
He called the satisfiers motivators
and the dissatisfiers hygiene
factors, using the term "hygiene" in
the sense that they are considered
maintenance factors that are
necessary to avoid dissatisfaction but
that by themselves do not provide
satisfaction.
International Church
of Christ, Nigeria
 MOTIVATION

The Research 2
• People were asked about times when they
had felt good about their work. It was
discovered that the key determinants of
job satisfaction were Achievement,
Recognition, Work itself, Responsibility
and Advancement.

• We also found that key dissatisfies were

Company policy and administration,
Supervision, Salary, Interpersonal
relationships and Working conditions.

resolved the
“DISSATISFIERS”,
they would not create
SATISFACTION.

Example 1
• You need to be paid on time each month
so you can pay your bills.

• If you are not paid on time, you get really

unhappy.

• But when you get paid on time, you

hardly notice it.

• Question: What factor is your salary?

International Church

 MOTIVATION

Example 2
•On the other hand, when your supervisor
gives you a pat on the back, you feel
good.

•You don't expect this every day and don't

especially miss not having praise all of the
time.

•Question: What factor is the pat on the

back?
International Church

 MOTIVATION

Using it Interactive Session

• Give examples and differentiate between hygiene
needs and motivator needs.
• Ensure you address motivator needs when getting
someone to do something.
• Attacking hygiene needs may be effective when
trying to stop them doing something.

Defending
• Beware of the person giving you what you really
need. Ask 'What's in it for them?'
• Discuss the above statement

Again we ask:
• What is your Motivation?
International Church

Top Factors Affecting Job Attitude

Leading to Dissatisfaction Leading to Satisfaction

•Company policy • Achievement

•Supervision • Recognition
•Relationship w/Boss • Work itself
•Work conditions • Responsibility
•Salary • Advancement
•Relationship w/Peers • Growth

The theory argues that the opposite of satisfaction is not

dissatisfaction, but rather, no satisfaction. Similarly, the opposite
of dissatisfaction is no dissatisfaction.

Avoiding “Left Brain” Thinkin

•Research has shown that cash, gift certificates and lifestyle
items are ineffective recognition vehicles. Biologically, they
don’t work.
•If that is the case, why is it they will be the most often
mentioned items when employees are asked “What would
you like to receive for recognition”?
•The answer lies in Maslow’s research. Maslow showed that
humans are driven by unfilled needs, not by unfilled wants.
There is a difference in the two.
• Wants - Transient desires that provide only short-term
gratification and temporary behavior change when filled.
• Needs - Deep desires that provide long-term fulfillment and
permanent attitude change when filled.

Examples of conflicting wants and needs in our own
lives

1. A 16 yr old boy inherits N300,000 from his grandmother.

He wants to buy a car with it. What he needs to do is save it
for his education.
2. I inherit N300,000 and love to fish. What I want is a boat.
What I need to do is save it for retirement.
3. A 6yr old is given N100 in a grocery store. She wants to
buy sweets. What she needs is more nutritious food, such
as an apple.
•Employees may “want” cash, gift certificates or household
goods if surveyed, but research shows they are poor
vehicles for recognition.

• Everything begins with a thought…
• What you think determines who you are…
• Who you are determines what you do…
• What you do often, becomes a habit…
• Habits determine your lifestyle…
