REWARD FOR HUMAN NEEDS
1. REWARD FOR HUMAN NEEDS
-People who are high in need achievement are highly motivated to strive for satisfaction that is derived from accomplishing some challenging tasks. “These people obtaining specific, timely criticism and feedback about their performance.”
Basic needs to drive people;
-need for achievement
-need for power
