Motivation Theories Each of the five popular theories on employee motivation has unique concepts about how employees function and what will encourage employees to form, as well as, implications for how managers should behave to achieve optimum results. Place the statements about each philosophy or theory in the appropriate columns according to the key concepts and managerial implications. The research of Taylor, Mayo, and many others has led to the development of a number of theories that attempt to describe what motivates employees to perform. The successful implementation of ideas based on these theories will vary, of course, depending on the company, its management, and its employees. It should be noted, too, that what worked in the past may no longer work today. Good managers must have the ability to adapt their ideas to an ever-changing, diverse group of employees.
