Many famous I-O psychologists have constantly devoted and contributed in the study of motivation at workplace, thus giving birth to various motivation theories over the past decades.By introducing extraordinary perspectives or findings, they either focus on behaviors, needs, expectancy or goal-setting.The authors have selected Maslow's Need Theory and Locke's Goal-setting Theory-two out of the most popular theories on motivation, and will look into their effectiveness in influencing productivity and performance in groups or individuals.
