Motivation is related to but distinct from emotion. One of the most stimulating and controversial theories, human nature proposed in recent years is that of Fredrick Hertzberg.

HERTZBERG MOTIVATION-HYGIENE THEORY

This growl out of research directed toward determining what factor lead to satisfaction on the job. The usual approach is one of examining a number of factors such as the work itself, pay, working condition supervisor status security and the likes

VROOM’S EXPECTATION THEORY OF MOTIVATIONIt is essential for manager to develop an understanding of human needs and the variety of organization available to satisfy the need of employer the need approach to motivation as developed by maslour and Hertzberg does not adequately account for difference in individual why people behave in certain way in accomplishing goals.

ABRAHAM MASLOW THEORY OF MOTIVATION

i.That people have a number of need that require some measure of satisfaction and  only unsatisfied the need of motivation behavior and

ii.The need of people are arrange in hierarchy of prepotency which means that as each low-level need is satisfaction the need, at the next level demand attention basically human being are motivated to satisfy psychology need first(food, clothing, shelter) then they seek to realize their potential which maslow called self actualization.

THEORIES OF MOTIVATION

The carrot and stick approach: this theory related the use of reward and penalties (punishment) in order to induce the desired  behavior despite all recent research and theories, reward and punishment are still important and referred strong motivation
