Intangible motivation of staff_ Intangible motivation of staff: on which natural needs it is based

The impact of natural human needs on the motivation of staff, through which their self-reliance is enhanced, reveals the theory of Abraham Maslow. This theory is the basic basis for many methods that offer different motivational incentives. Professor Vladimir Gertik, in his motivational concept, for example, divides psychotype workers into groups, each of these groups has a special impact on their incentives. For workers with physiological needs in the first place, adequate wages should be provided. Staff members who are in need of security and protection will be motivated by the existence of a friendly collective atmosphere, timely assistance and support for colleagues and supervisors, need those who are particularly sensitive to the needs of the social plan.

Most staff members have a pressing need for respect and self-esteem, and they are therefore essential for successful and productive work to be sensitized and cared by managers, which demonstrate that their labour enthusiasm and efforts will not remain unnoticed. Works that require a non-standard approach should be made available to those who have a creative warehouse of character and who require self-realization. If the non-material motivation of staff is approached in the light of all the factors listed, even with minimal financial costs, and sometimes with total absence, it is possible to obtain a high degree of impact.
