He has been helping me untangle my Grad Professors difficult time explaining which is little as he just gives 10 articles running 30 pgs and about thee chp between 2 txt books per class
THANK YOU SIR!!!! Thumbs up & subscribed to your channel. I am studying for my Bachelor's in Business Management and taking my SHRM-CP certification at the same time, this has helped me tremendously !!!!!
Wow, thank you. As a foreigner who is not fluent in the language of the country I am currently living in. I had difficulty understanding my teacher. But thanks to this well-explained video. I finally get it.
Question #1 - Since you mentioned at 2:21 of the video that a High nAch person might actually feel powerful, would you say there exists some crossover between these three personality types? Question #2 - Since a High nAch person might be afraid to fail, would you say these persons often have to deal with perfectionism and procrastination issues? Question #3 - Why are star salespersons often viewed with such high esteem in the business world but are sometimes viewed unfairly with low esteem by consumers? Question #4 - How often does a person believe they belong to one of these three categories when in reality other persons see them belonging to a different category?
Thanks - a lot of questions, so I need to be brief: 1. I'm not sure that this follows - I was referring to the psychological/emotional pay-off of achieving something. However, we all have a balance of the three needs, so even someone with high nAch still has some nPow 2. Very likely, yes. But again, I am not sure if there is a strong causative link and there may not be any research either way. 3. Good question. The business world needs sales to drive profit. Consumers can feel pressured to buy, by less able sales[eople - who then color our perception of the role. 4. I have no idea. I'd guess most of us have a good intuition. But I don''t even know whether there is a calibrated assessment available!
Thanks, Michael. I'm a business student and I needed something real to drive home McClelland's theory. Your video was just what I needed. THanks for making it :) God bless you!
Thank you sir, but most important , i have very big respect for the quality of your content, but most important the engagement! this channel is one of my main reference, as a 10 year exp PM i must admit one secret i HATE PM society because we concentrate on formality not the purpose of it! you sir on the other hand of the people keeping the balance to underline why and when to apply these formality so it is more applicable! respect
Thank you very much for your comments. The secret to everythig is balance. Sometimes formality is important. But only when it truly serves the goal of getting the job done.
There are some simple quizzes and questionnaires around - just do a search. I am not aware of any that come from serious researchers, so I would use them only as educational tools to illustrate the principles.
I would have hoped you'd see the linkto motivation from watching the video - there are three motivational needs. we appeal to them to motivate people. But this is not about reward systems.
Hi Dr. Clayton. Would you be able to advise the reason why these theories are called 'content' theories? Why was it decided to call it 'content' theory? What does content in here stand for? For eg: if you say this is a motivation theory, we understand it is do with motivation but when you say (not you personally ofcourse) content theory, to a layman, it signifies nothing? Content as in satisfaction or content as in subject matter or what? I am just trying to understand the reasoning behind the nomenclature to better understand this. Please advise. Many thanks
I came up with the terms 'Content Theory' and 'Process Theory' as a way t group theories in a way that seems logical to me: - process theories tell us about different models of how motivation works - content theories offer models of the things that motivate us These labels are not used by researchers. And they are in no way robust. They are just a convenient way to structure the different content in the course. If the terms don't work for you, then just ignore them. If you think they make some sense, but that I put some models into the wrong category, fine. Looking back at some of my choices, I'm not sure I'd do exactly the same again!
@@ManagementCourses Thank you Dr. Clayton for clarifying. Again, please never stop the great work you are doing. You are a great teacher and I am grateful that I came across your lectures. I also referred your channel to my fellow students who were struggling and they have subscribed, they were thanking me but the real thanks is to you. So, thank you again from all of us. Much appreciated.
Hello great video very helpful, i'm currently studying about motivation in the workplace for my supervisor apprenticeship, Do you know what the implications would be for McClelland's theory for what i need to do to motivate others in workplace?
Yes I do. If you watched the video, you will know that what McClelland tells us is that we need to understand the people around us and frame our requests of them in terms of the things that most motivate them; their needs. Relate what you want from people to the needs that are most strong in them. McClelland suggests we focus on Power, Affiliation, and Achievement.
I am not sure I completely understand your question and also please bear in mid I am not an academic psychologist. But, if you are asking whether school-age learners are motivated by affiliation, power, and achievement, I'd think the answer is yes. It certainly was among the kids in my school - although that was long ago! 😉
I'm just thinking of this concept if I could connect and add this as variable in a research study to school-age learners. Anyway, thanks a lot sir for this comprehensive presentation. God bless!😊❤
Faisal is a male kind of name (common in Arabic speaking countries and families around the world who trace ancestry to them, I believe). Hetal is a female kind of name (I believe common throughout many parts of India - and the diaspora around the world) What about Jonathan? A male kind of name (originating in the Levant, I think, and common in Jewish and Christian families around the world)
Matthew, it is important to consider degree. You can have a high motivation for power without it becoming toxic. Indeed, it usually becomes toxic when your motivation is not 'for power' but 'against losing power'. (The US version of House of Cards is a great fictional exemplar.) And excess motivation towards achievement or affiliation can likewise become toxic - as can fear of losing affiliation or of failing to achieve. These lead, respectively, to manipulative behavior or to playing it overly safely.
Okay, goodbye. But be aware that this is an assessment of how we can use known psychology. Is it manipulation? That all depends on your motivation, really. Are you using this to help people feel good about something they need to do, or to coerce them into doing something that's not good for them?

Thank you.
Great video! May I ask if there is a simple survey out there that could be used to determine someone's primary motivation (nAch, nPow, nAff)?
There are some simple quizzes and questionnaires around - just do a search. I am not aware of any that come from serious researchers, so I would use them only as educational tools to illustrate the principles.
How is this topic related to Motivation and Rewards Systems?
I would have hoped you'd see the linkto motivation from watching the video - there are three motivational needs. we appeal to them to motivate people. But this is not about reward systems.

Sales isn’t easy though and there is a lot of rejection before success is seen. Very challenging to keep an achiever engaged during the ramp up
Absolutely, Lisa. Motivation is a vital skill for any sales manager.
I have a $20 bill where the thread is showing on the front of the bill.And it also have the regular thread on it
errrr.... so?
Is it applicable to use this motivational theory as bases in a research study to school learners? Thank you.😊

what kind of names is faisal and hetal
Faisal is a male kind of name (common in Arabic speaking countries and families around the world who trace ancestry to them, I believe).
Hetal is a female kind of name (I believe common throughout many parts of India - and the diaspora around the world)
What about Jonathan? A male kind of name (originating in the Levant, I think, and common in Jewish and Christian families around the world)
Are those cats in the background?

May be a cat - I record from home.

You make Hetal sound like a toxic employee. I would recommend against hiring anyone who is motivated by power.
Matthew, it is important to consider degree. You can have a high motivation for power without it becoming toxic. Indeed, it usually becomes toxic when your motivation is not 'for power' but 'against losing power'. (The US version of House of Cards is a great fictional exemplar.)
And excess motivation towards achievement or affiliation can likewise become toxic - as can fear of losing affiliation or of failing to achieve. These lead, respectively, to manipulative behavior or to playing it overly safely.
this is manipulation, byee-
