About this listen

Academia has produced many motivational theories. Most are well thought, and subsequent research has supported their usefulness and validity. One concern with theses theories, however, is the fact that they were mostly developed in academia using interviews, surveys, or controlled subject groups made up of students or paid participants. Often times, real world application is not part of this process. This eBook examines the gap between academia and the real world. It describes major seven motivational theories and applies them to situations in organizations. Using the examples provided, readers gain a better understanding of how the theories work and why they are not always completely applicable. The motivational theories discussed include: Hierarchy of Needs Theory X and Theory Y Goal Setting Theory Equity Theory Expectancy Theory Reinforcement Theory Two-Factor Theory (Motivation-Hygiene Theory) Occupational & Organizational Organizational Behavior

Straight forward explanation of popular motivational theories

The five star review is based on the expectations that I have for the quality of free reading material. For being free literature, it really wasn’t too horrible. It covers the most popular motivational theories and gives a brief overview and an example story. I think even a high school student would be able to use this information.
