MOTIVATION
1. Emotion
- Positive emotions are the basis requirement to approach Goal orientation,
Effort, and Persistent that are 3 elements of MOTIVATION.
2. Motivation theory
 Hierarchy of Needs Theory
- Lower-order needs that includes physiological, safety, and social needs, focus
on physical and social well-being.
- Higher-order needs that includes esteem and self-actualization needs, focus
on psychological development and growth.
Two principles to describe how this affect human behavior.
- Deficit principle states that a satisfied need does not motivate behavior.
- Progression principle state that a need in not activated until the next lower-
level need is satisfied.
 Tw0-Factor theory
- A satisfactory factor (or motivation factor) is found in the nature of work, such
as challenging and exciting work, recognition, responsibility, advancement
opportunities, or personal growth. Two-factory theory links satisfaction
factors with job satisfaction. Herzberg believes that the more satisfier factors
are present in a job, the higher the individual’s work motivation.
 ex: Try to align (=arrange) employees' job duties with their skills and talents.
Consider offering job training for employees to promote career development. You can
also provide educational resources to encourage employees to gain new skills.
- A hygiene factor is found in job environment, such as working conditions,
interpersonal relations, organizational policies, and compensation. Two-
factory theory links hygiene factors with job dissatisfaction.
- Improving the hygiene decrease job dissatisfaction but will not enhance job
satisfaction and motivation.
 ex: Create a safe, healthy work environment that demands the fair treatment of all
employees. Encourage employees to voice any concerns. It's also important to
acknowledge and respect their feedback, then apply what you learn to make changes in
the workplace.
 Acquired needs theory
McClelland claimed that people acquire or develop these needs over time as a result
of individual life experiences because each need can be linked with a distinct set of work
preferences.
- Need for achievement: the desire to do something better, to solve problems,
or to master complex tasks. People with high needs for achievement work well
with each other; manager should give them challenging jobs with achievable
goals; and regularly respond to work progress for them.
 ex:
- Need for power: People who pursue personal power have a strong desire to
control, influence others; make people behave in accordance with their
desires.
 ex: Shawn has a high need for personal power and often manipulates employees to
work for him; and then robs.
- Need for affiliation: the desire to establish and maintain good relations with
people. Managers should provide them with opportunities to work in a good
cooperative environment.

 in work environment, a person with positive attitude and enthusiasm overshadows
lack of relevant knowledge and skills. His/her colleagues appreciate that person’s
performance than actual ability.
- Selective perception: the tendency to define problem from one’s point of view,
not many people. In other words, the cognitive process is focus on a certain
aspect of a situation while ignoring others.
 ex: A consumer who has loyalty to a particular brand might only notice
advertisements or promotions related to that brand while shopping, ignoring other
competing brands. Even if a competing brand offers a better deal, the consumer’s
selective perception might lead them to choose the familiar brand.

traits or feelings in themselves mind.
