Theory of motivation:

1. Maslow's Hierarchy of needs
2. Hygiene theory

These two theory are the best of all the theory because in the very first theory, Maslow is talking about the basic need of the people which are Physiological needs, safety,social needs, self esteem, and self actualization.This theory is based upon job satisfaction for employee.

Hygiene Theory is used to determine whether the employee is having a good experience or bad experience in his workplace. Factors like growth, reputation,appraisals, benefits, these need to be high for an employee to feel satisfied with their jobs.

These factors changes from employee to employee. Some employee wish to fulfill their basic needs while other desire for growth, enrichment, appraisals in any job.
