5. MOTIVATIONAL THEORIES

6. Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs Theory:
– Proposed by Abraham Maslow,
– this theory suggests that people are motivated to fulfill
basic physiological needs (like food, water, and shelter)
before moving on to safety, social, esteem, and self-
actualization needs.
– It’s often depicted as a pyramid with five levels, where
each level represents a different need.
• Physiological Needs: Basic survival needs.
• Safety Needs: Security, stability, and protection.
• Social Needs: Belongingness, friendship, and love.
• Esteem Needs: Self-esteem, recognition, and
achievement.
• Self-Actualization: Fulfillment of one’s potential and
personal growth.

8. Alderfer’s ERG Theory:
– Clayton Alderfer condensed Maslow’s hierarchy
into three categories:
• Existence Needs: Similar to physiological and safety
needs.
• Relatedness Needs: Similar to social needs.
• Growth Needs: Similar to esteem needs and self-
actualization.
– Unlike Maslow’s theory, Alderfer’s ERG theory
allows movement between categories.

10. Herzberg’s Two-Factor Theory:
– Developed by Frederick Herzberg,
– this theory includes two types of factors:
– Herzberg emphasized that motivators are intrinsic
(internal) factors, while hygiene factors are
extrinsic (external) factors.

11. McClelland’s Needs Theory:
– David McClelland proposed that individuals have
three primary needs:
• Need for Achievement: Desire for success, accomplishment,
and overcoming challenges.
• Need for Affiliation: Desire for social connections and
relationships.
• Need for Power: Desire for influence, control, and
leadership.
– People’s dominant need influences their behavior and
motivation.
– This theory is also known as Acquired Need Theory
