Acquired needs theory proposes that people are motivated by three primary needs: achievement, power, and affiliation. People with a high need for achievement prefer individual responsibilities, challenging goals, and performance feedback. People with a high need for power are drawn to positions of authority and opportunities to influence others. People with a high need for affiliation like to be liked and accepted by others, and enjoy working in collaborative environments. The needs are independent of each other, so a high need for achievement does not necessarily mean a high need for affiliation, and vice versa.
