The document discusses motivation and different motivation theories including Maslow's hierarchy of needs and Herzberg's two-factor theory. Maslow proposed that people are motivated to fulfill basic physiological needs, safety needs, social needs, esteem needs, and self-actualization needs in that order. Herzberg suggested there are hygiene factors like salary and working conditions that prevent dissatisfaction but do not motivate, and motivators like achievement and recognition that positively motivate performance. The document analyzes how these theories apply to employee motivation.
