Need Theories of Motivation
• Maslow’s Hierarchy
• Mclelland’s Theory of Needs (read these)– Achievement– Power– Affiliation
![Page 8: Job Characteristics Model Task Identity –Extent to which employees complete a whole, identifiable piece of work Job Feedback –Extent to which completing](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110207/56649d8a5503460f94a6fbef/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Assumptions of Maslow’s Theory
• Five needs arranged in a hierarchy– Lower order needs
• Similar to hygiene factors
– Higher order needs• Similar to motivator factors
• Unfulfilled needs motivate behavior– Start at the bottom and move up

Maslow’s Hierarchy
• Physiological– Basic needs (food & shelter) satisfied through wages
• Security– Basic protection from threats:
safe working conditions, job security (move to employability based security)
• Social– Feeling welcomed, part of the group or organization
