Motivation - is the process encouraging people to work. There are many different aspects of the theory of motivation, and they are:
1. Historically, the early views on motivation to work, such as the policy of "carrot and stick".

• D. McClelland theory;
• F. Hertzberg’s theory;

• Physiological needs (hunger, thirst)
• Needs for safety, stability and confidence in the future
• Needs for love, participation, communication
• Needs for recognition and self-confirmation
• Needs for self-actualization
A. Maslow assumed that needs for this hierarchy arise gradually. Satisfying primary requirements, the person gradually becomes more motivated. People not simply satisfy one need for another, but move up, changing the importance for these or those needs.
