Answers should mention:​
Maslow's hierharchy of needs theory: this has not been validated by clinical testing.As a classic theory,it demonstrates that satisfied needs do not motivate.
Herzberg's motivation-maintenance (two-factor) theory: he assumes people have higher-order needs and does not include workers who do not have these needs.His contribution was to emphasize the importance of enriched work.
Expectancy theory: based on the assumption that effort or motivation relies on your belief that you can succeed.This "somewhat-mysterious connection" is very powerful.Also,perception,which is difficult to measure,is an important element in this theory.
McGregor's theory X/theory Y: employees perform to their managers' expectations,whether pessimistic or optimistic.The typing of managers is simple and descriptive.
Goal-setting theory: goals may be too easy to achieve when effort is not needed.Appropriate (difficult but not impossible) goals are an excellent self-motivation strategy.
