Brief conclusions

Man carries out certain actions in accordance with the pressure on him of the totality of internal and external forces in relation to him. The totality of these forces, called motivation, causes people in many ways not the same reaction. Therefore, it is impossible to unambiguously describe the process of motivation. At the same time, on the basis of empirical research, several concepts have been developed that describe factors that affect motivation and content of the process of motivation.

The so-called theory of the content of motivation focuses on how different groups of needs affect human behavior. Widely recognized concepts of this group are Maslow's hierarchy of needs, the theory of ERG Alderfer, the theory of the two factors of Herzberg and the theory of McClelland's acquired needs. Despite the fundamental differences between these concepts, they nevertheless have something in common at their core that will reflect a certain commonality in the person's motivation for action.

The process of motivation is revealed in theories trying to explain why people are ready to carry out certain actions, spending more or less effort. The expectation theory, the theory of goal setting, the theory of equality and the theory of participative management, explaining how people should be influenced to motivate them to work efficiently, give managers the key to building an effective system of motivating people.
