How have your own work experiences reflected any of these forms of motivation? Do you think that there may be yet another type of motivation, one that deals with personal feelings of being respected and valued by your employer? Would that be an internal or external form of motivation? please respond to previous questions. the following is the original post. The traditional view of motivation assumes that employees are only motivated by money and the way to make people work harder is to promise them more rewards for more work. This view believes that employees are self-centered and lazy, they need external rewards like money for motivation, and need to be constantly supervised. The traditional view of motivation assumes that employees are only motivated by external sources when in fact, people can also work based on internal motivations. Internal motivations include an interest in the job, a sense of accomplishment for bringing good results, and a desire to contribute to the organization. The traditional view is therefore limited in its assumptions that only money can motivated employees to work better. Money can motivate employees up to a point, but after that if the work itself does not provide any internal motivation, people won't put efforts despite monetary benefits. For example, despite having high salaries, people don't have high productivity in their work because their work is repetitive and monotonous, providing no internal motivation to perform better.
