Motivation
Entrepreneurial behavior is the result of entrepreneurial
motivation.
Motivation has been derived from the word ‘motive’
which implies the inner state of mind that activates,
provokes and directs our behavior towards the goal.
Motivation is a process that motivates a person into
action and induces him to follow the course of action till
the goals are finally achieved.

to create incentives to work.

and impel people to take required action” – Lewis Allen

energies, activates or moves and that directs behaviour towards

Motivation
( A ) Maslow Need Hierarchy Theory:
Based on human needs.

needs.
The second need does not arise till the first need is
satisfied i.e. needs have a definite sequence of
domination

( B ) McClelland’s Three Need Model:
Includes: -
Need for achievement:
Drive to excel, advance and grow.
Desire to achieve something with own efforts.
Need for Power:
Drive to influence others and situations.
Desire to influence and dominate others through use of
authority.
Need for Affiliation:
Drive for friendly and close interpersonal
relationships.
Desire to establish and maintain friendly
relationship with others.
People possess the above needs in varying
degrees and these needs may be simultaneously
acting on an individual. In case of entrepreneurs
the need for achievement is more dominating.
( C ) Alderfer’s ERG Theory:
Existence, Relatedness and Growth Theory.
Existence Needs:
