Abstract

People perform activities out of Extrinsic Motivation, because they expect an external reward for their action. This could be a monetary bonus, the appreciation of stakeholders as well as missing out a punishment as disgracing oneself.

Following Daniel Pink Extrinsic Motivation factors as salary motivate people to a certain point after this fairly paid point is reached more salary does not give more motivation. The intrinsic motivation of people is much more crucial, because it helps longterm and to a much higher degree. However missing extrinsic motivation discourages people and should not be underestimated[1]. "Extrinsic motivation entails the Hull-Spence drives of hunger, thirst, sex, and pain/anxiety avoidance. In contrast, nonsurvival needs, or so-called ego motives such as curiosity, competence, autonomy, and play, comprise intrinsic motivation." [2].
