What to Focus On

  • Motivation is the force behind action and goal-directed behaviour.
  • Motivation can be positive or negative.
  • Negative motivation stops undesirable behaviour rather than encouraging desirable behaviour.

  • Robert Dubin links motivation with forces that start and continue work.
  • Mamoria links motivation with energy, goal, and reward.
  • Buford, Bedeian, and Lindner connect motivation with purposive behaviour and unmet needs.

  • Motivators are broadly financial and non-financial.
  • Financial motivators are monetary benefits.
  • Financial motivators lose effectiveness once monetary needs are satisfied.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Motivation always means encouraging good behaviour, so negative motivation is not real motivation.

Bonus and profit sharing are the same thing.

Perquisites are monetary benefits because they are listed with financial motivators.
