Apa itu Herzberg Theory - Penjelasan Singkat dan Jelas

Summary

This video discusses Herzberg's Two-Factor Theory of Motivation, which distinguishes between motivator factors and hygiene factors in the workplace. Motivator factors, like recognition, responsibility, and challenging work, contribute to job satisfaction, while hygiene factors, such as salary, work conditions, and relationships, address job dissatisfaction. The video explains how improving motivator factors boosts job satisfaction, whereas enhancing hygiene factors reduces dissatisfaction. Various workplace scenarios, including an extreme example, are used to illustrate how these factors impact motivation and employee complaints. The video emphasizes understanding and balancing these factors to optimize workplace motivation.

Takeaways

• 📊 The video discusses motivation in the workplace, focusing on two key factors: motivator factors and hygiene factors.
• 🤔 Motivator factors are linked to job satisfaction, while hygiene factors are related to job dissatisfaction.
