PSY 320 Week 2 Motivation and Needs Presentation

Select at least one of the types of needs (physiological, psychological, or implicit) concerning human motivation in a work setting.

Prepare a 10- to 15-minute oral presentation, accompanied by 10 to 15 Microsoft® PowerPoint® slides (this does not include the title slide and the reference/s slide/s), in which you analyze physiological, psychological, or implicit needs as they relate to human behavior.

• Online Campus students do not deliver an oral presentation; however, they must submit speaker notes with their presentations.
• The bulk of your PowerPoint information will be in the speaker notes; slides must be visually appealing, clear, organized and images/charts/graphs, etc. that are included within slides must be cited according to APA guidelines with the references included in the reference section at the end of your presentation.

Address the following in your presentation:

• Identify the organizational setting.
• Define the selected needs.
• Identify and explain the factors that affect workplace behavior.
• Assess the importance of acquired needs.
• Apply one to two theories―such as drive reduction theory, cognitive evaluation theory, or Atkinson’s model―to how physiological, psychological, or implicit needs affect behavior.
• Explain how the organization is affected by unmet human needs, as well as what can be done to improve employees’ experiences.

Cite at least 3 references from scholarly, peer-reviewed sources.

Format any citations in your presentation according to APA guidelines.
