Motivation Theory is something that, by now, we are all familiar with, and perhaps one of the most recognisable theories to date, often
being the first one mentioned when the concept of motivational theory
is raised, is Maslow’s hierarchy of needs.
To recap the theory briefly, Abraham Maslow suggested that there are
five tiers of motivation; physiological, safety, belonging, esteem
and self-actualisation, with each one superseding the previous
factor, until you reach self-actualisation, where all of an
individual’s motivational needs are met and hence, this is when
they have reached the top and have become the “best that they can
be”.
