Motivation theorist describe this a being is a basic need of people for day to day living such as food, water and shelter.

    Motivation (in a work setting) is the process by which behavior is mobilized and sustained in the interest of achieving goals (DuBrin, 2007, p. 114). “Motivation is the complex force starting and keeping a person at work in an organization. Motivation is something that moves the person to action, and continues him in the course of action already initiated” (Dubin, 1958). When an individual is motivated, he feels energized or inspired to act, whereas an unmotivated person feels no impetus to do so (Ryan and Deci, 2000, p. 54). It is then clear that individuals have different amounts of motivation. Motivation is a complex process that includes biological drive, extrinsic (external) rewards and intrinsic (personal) rewards.…

    Motivation Theories

    • 1860 Words
    • 8 Pages

    A couple of decades ago, the topic of motivation were just another term in the books of managers trying to implement behavioural techniques on their employees. Give perks, give monetary benefits, performance rewards and employees are bound to be motivated – as simple as that. But gradually as the years passed by, as people began to move out of the shackles of monotonous, menial work environments, there was a radical shift on how management studies began to view motivation. There were debates, lectures, psychological-social experiments and theories which suddenly threw the old concepts aside and brought in new ones. The topic became a cynosure of all management, scientific and economic studies – a topic which was deemed simple suddenly became a complex monster without which, the workplace culture was poised to be threatened. Employees, after all, are the biggest assets of organizations – and motivation is what keeps them going.…

    EDCE- Motivation

    • 335 Words
    • 2 Pages

    What motivates me? That's a good question to reflect upon as I sit here. Quite frankly I believe that answer can change from day to day with me. I say that because while there are many potential motivators in my life, each one comes into play at specific points throughout my days, weeks, etc. Currently what motivates me is the sense of accomplishment, that I'm currently accomplishing things that I set as goals for myself just a few months ago, & things that I never before imagined to be within reach so soon. As I view my statistics on **************.org it's wild to me that more than 50% of the student body have used the site, to me- someone who transferred here from a community college just last year it's mind blowing.…

My wife and I are dieting together and doing really well without diet pills and heavy exercising. The main point in my motivational program will be a saying of “you can and you will”.
