Theories of Motivation Theory Type Key components of the theory Real world example Similarities and Differences Instinct Theories Motivation from biologically programmed behaviors occurring in response to environmental cues. A bird migrating prior to the winter season, or a sea turtle seeking out the ocean after hatching. They both deal with knowledge you do not have to learn because your brain will already know how to interact with things. The examples I gave where about animals and the subject deals with every living thing. Evolutionary Theories Evolutionary theories of motivation focus on motives that affect the success of growth over time. Computers and cell phones have changed the way we interact with people. Here I gave examples of how technology has evolved over time and changed the way we live. My examples are of technical creation and the text book shares evolution of living things and how they evolve. Drive Theories A theory that states of tension motivate us to take action to reduce them. Having to go to the bathroom while you are driving down the road you will need to pull into the next gas station to relieve yourself. In both cases your body tells your mind that something needs to be done in order to resume with everyday life. In the text it talks about what the body takes in and in my example is of the body needing to rid...

...------------------------------------------------- University of Phoenix Material Reward System Worksheet Respond to the following questions in 200-300 words. How do the physiological, psychological, and social needs described in the textbook influence workplace reward systems? How can these systems affect employee motivation? We all have basic physiological needs ranging from the need to eat, drink breathe, and even the need to engage in sex. Our social needs range from the approval of our peers to healthy and growing relationships with our co-workers and fellow man. Our need to be accepted is paramount to human survival and interaction. Our physiological needs are necessary in order for our survival. Our needs are often what drive us to do certain activities and tasks. For example, if you are thirsty and the nearest source of water is a mile away from your location, you will travel that distance in order to satisfy that need. Applying this principle to the work setting can be difficult. You will have to gain an understanding of the needs of the employees. They range from complex needs to the more basic needs. A reward system that benefits the most employees would be ideal. If the majority of the employees feel a need to have a pay raise, then applying an incentive based program during each quarter may fit the need. Without some type of rewards system in place, employee motivation will definitely suffer. When people don’t receive the rewards that they feel they are justified...

...University of Phoenix Material Self-Reflection Worksheet Respond to the following in 200-300 words each. 1. While considering the different theories of motivation, describe your personal motivation for attending college. How much of your motivation is extrinsic, intrinsic, and neutral? From what you have read, how might you change your motivation? Which motivational theory applies most to your situation? Explain why. My motivation for attending collage is my family. I want my kids to grow up seeing that if they want something they need to apply themselves and get it. My motivation started when I was put on second shift. I am a family man, I enjoy seeing my kids and want to be around when they need me. Me working second shift, I am home while there in school, and working while they are home. My motivations is mixed but it is more extrinsic. I do something to get something. I did not even know there was a name for that but there is. From what I have read I do not believe I would change my motivation, maybe add to it but not change it. And I am not sure what motivates me the most (beside better life for my family). I would say drive reduction theory applies most in my situation. I feel I am well balanced. If there is something I need I will try to find a way to make it so. Need not want. I have always felt people have a knack to survive. It is in our biology. So when my body tell me I need to eat I usually eat. Now I do listen to that way...

While considering the different theories of motivation, describe your personal motivation for attending college. How much of your motivation is extrinsic, intrinsic, and neutral? From what you have read, how might you change your motivation? Which motivational theory applies most to your situation? Explain why. A lot of my motivation would have to be extrinsic. I am being motivated by the rewards after I finish my degree. My personal motivation leans on extrinsic. I want to be able to provide for my family and still have enough left over for myself. I want things, and I definitely need things. The wants are the basic definition of extrinsic motivation. The extrinsic motivation allows for me to see the end result. All rewards, no punishment. I will be able to say that I accomplished something I never though I would be able to. Some of my motivation does come from intrinsic motivation, though. I decided on this degree for enjoyment reasons, too. I really like business and I enjoy all the learning that comes along with it. There is always change and problem solving and my biggest assest is my problem solving! 2. Describe two specific emotions you have experienced, one pleasant and one unpleasant.

...Motivation Methods Paper Motivation by definition means to give an incentive for action. Motivation is a large factor in either the success or failure for a company. Unfortunately, motivating people is not an exact science. There is no one way, no worksheet to fill out, or no set formula or calculation. Money may motivate one employee of a company. Someone else may appreciate personal recognition for performing a job well done or may work harder if he or she has a type of equity in the business. Employee motivation comes down to one basic ideal: discovering out what the employees want and finding a way to give it to them or to enable them to earn it. There are many methods of motivating employees in today's global business environment. Still, some strategies are prevalent across organizations striving to improve employee motivation. What employees deem important will be the best place to focus motivation efforts. Employees within the same department of an organization will have different motivators. Many organizations that have flexibility in job design and reward systems have employees with better morale, improved productivity, and increased tenured with the company he or she works for. It is important that owners and managers communicate the company's purpose to their employees so that the employees know their contributions are important and that their contributions are valuable to the company. The communication between the two should take the form of words...

...Worksheet 1.1 Reflect on These Success Factors Motivation: What motivates me most to pursue a college degree? My #1 motivation for pursuing my college degree is my family. I have now realized that the 3 little faces I have to look at everyday motivates me to continue and finish my education. I express to them how important education is but I too must be an example. I have to “practice what I preach.” I would also love to pursue my dream of becoming an Educator and not feel like I failed at earning my degree. PURPOSE: What is my main purpose in seeking a college degree? My main purpose of seeking a degree is to realize my dream of becoming a Pre-K Teacher. First of all, I love kids and it has always been my dream and passion to be an educator. Teachers have a very important role of shaping the lives of youth children. I was not able to finish my degree when I was younger because I was not mentally prepared for college. I gave-up my dream to get married and start a family. Only now after 15+ years am I mentally ready and determined to finish what I started. VALUES: What values am I demonstrating by seeking my college degree? The value I am demonstrating in seeking my college degree is determination. Being determined is having made a firm decision and being resolved not to change it. I have had to change my way of thinking and realize I wasn’t prepared to be in college at 18. I was a small town Christian girl and college was scary to me. Going back home to my small...
