| Rudolph Woods - USA | Internal and External Motivators | "Just a quick tip: Thinking on ways to motivate an employee / your workforce? You should understand that Maslow's Pyramid focuses on internal motivators or needs. Maslow shares this internal orientation with Herzberg's Two Factor Theory, Alderfer's ERG Theory and McLelland's Theory of Needs. It is also possible to use external motivators or stimuli to motivate employees. For example by providing clear, specific, achievable targets, preferably involving the employee in the process, and preferably providing feedback, such as in Drucker's Management by Objectives and many similar result-oriented concepts." |

| ● (Malaysia) | Averting Global Crisis | "There is nothing wrong with the theories. The main problem is greed, coruption, unprofessionalism and poor management approaches. Accountability and commitment to personal values is just not there thanks to the current brand of progressive management styles." |
| ● niloufer (United Arab Emmirates) | Marketing Needs | "Social and... cultural needs." |
| ● Chris Holley (USA) | Establishing and maintaining a positive environment | "It is the combination of the theories (Herzberg, Maslow, Alderfer, McLelland, Mac Gregor; etc) that helps a leader - by matching the needs of the employees with the needs of the organization. Motivation for the employee must come from within. It is the leader which affects the environment to which an employee works. This, in turn, affects the employee's motivation to work. If the leader establishes and maintains a positive environment, then the leader can expect positive results - the behavior will more likely be repeated. If a leader/manager uses negative actions/activities, then the results will more than likely be negative. The behavior might or might not be repeated (50/50). People want to be treated as you would be. Hold them accountable, but treat them as well as you treat yourself." |

| ● Denise Marshall (United Kingdom) | Trusting Relationships | "Whilst Maslow's, Herberg's et al theories do still apply when looking at how we motivate our employees or more accurately how we create an environment in which the employee feels motivated, the foundation to fostering a motivated workforce is to have trusting relationships. If trust exists in the workplace, then it is possible to create a positive and motivating workplace where people will be able to achieve their potential. Without trust, results of targets etc will be hit and miss. With trust success rates will increase." | |
| ● Hester Kruizinga (The Netherlands) | Carl Rogers ideas | "Thank you for this excellent article. I only could add that acc. to Carl Rogers ideas, we must keep in mind that each individual responds differrently to our models and statistics. Thank you for your inspiring contribution." | |
| ● Kuthupdeen (Singapore) | Explanation on Maslow Hierarchy of Needs | "Thanks. Just when I wanted more explanation on Maslow Hierarchy of Needs. Great stuff." | |
| ● Deepak Bhagat (India) | Environment for Self-Motivation | "After thinking over this needs model we must develop an environment in the organisation which will make the people self motivated to perform." |
| ● Sarah (UK) | Dissertation on Mis-use of Management Theory | "Sandra, I would appreciate more in depth, 'personal experience' oriented information. I'm focusing my masters dissertation on 'mis-use' of theory - particularly Maslow. Having read journals and searched other articles I seem to have still found a 'gap' whereby there really has been little research following Maslow's insistence that his theories were not originally meant for management use and also the total avoidance of his SA theories in terms of the workplace - ie. taking part of it but not the whole and therefore not using or testing it as it was intended. As I read about 'emotional intelligence' and issues such as 'building a coaching culture' - so much of it crosses over longstanding theories that seem to have been discarded far too early. Any information is greatly appreciated. thanks" |
