Throughout time people have believed that others are motivated by just basic needs and rewards/punishments. However, in the book Drive by Daniel H. Pink, Pink claims that people are not just motivated by basic needs and rewards/punishments. They are also motivated intrinsically. Pink quotes scientist Bob Wolf, “Wolf uncovered a range of motives, but they found that enjoyment-based intrinsic motivation, namely how creative a person feels when working on the project, is the strongest and most pervasive driver” (Pink 21).

Both styles of motivation are designed to meet the needs of employees so they feel safe and productive in the work place. Intrinsic motivation meets needs that motivate one to grow personally, achieve goals, become responsible and be recognized for their work, extrinsic factors fit physiological, safety, and security needs.

Intrinsic motivation is the desire to do or achieve something because one truly wants to and takes pleasure or sees value in doing so.

Some examples of actions that are the effect of intrinsic motivation include participating in a sport because you find the activity enjoyable, playing a game because you find it exciting, or studying to get good grades because you feel proud of yourself. In each of these examples, the person’s behavior is motivated by an internal…
Extrinsic motivation is directly driven by external factors, as opposed to the internal drivers of intrinsic motivation. Extrinsic motivation drives me to do things for tangible rewards such as money or pressures, rather than for the fun of it. In a workplace this motivation would be the most used because most people work for money. I am employed at the Corcoran State Prison and this is an extrinsic motivation because I get paid to watch and protect inmates and control any possible hostile situations. One way where my occupation wouldn’t apply as an extrinsic motivation, but as an external regulation, is if I was forced to put myself in harm’s way for another co-worker in potential danger or inmate in potential danger…

Extrinsic rewards are the tangible rewards given employees by managers, such as pay raises, bonuses, and benefits. They are called extrinsic because they are external to the work itself and other people control their size and whether or not they are granted. In contrast, intrinsic rewards are psychological rewards that employees get from doing meaningful work and performing it well. Extrinsic motivation is when we are motivated to perform a behavior or engage in an activity in order to earn a reward or avoid a punishment. This is what I focus of when I’m at my job. The motivation in performing and succeeding in what I do to earn a good reward from my boss. This type of reward plays a big role at my job when I generally work more routines and complying with all the rules and procedures. This work offered me few intrinsic rewards, so that extrinsic rewards were often the only motivational tools available to my job. The amount of pay is an important consideration for me in accepting my job, because if I was paid unfairly, I would not accept to work at floral arrangement company. Extrinsic is the total opposite from intrinsic. But intrinsic and extrinsic goes hand in hand. One of them will always benefit or connect to each other. Intrinsic is when engaging in a behavior because it is personally rewarding; essentially, performing an activity for its own sake rather than the desire for some external reward. Like extrinsic motivation, intrinsic motivation is motivation that comes from within to want to do a good job at something because it's something that you, yourself want for yourself. It comes from a feeling of accomplishment and pride from within. Extrinsic is through primary. It’s the idea of doing something because there is something in it for you outside of just a feeling of accomplishment. For example, your parents giving you money for good grades is extrinsic. Just getting good grades or pooping on the potty for your own feeling of achievement is intrinsic.…
